We look at the division of 31697 by 55 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 55 in 31697.

Let's proceed to step 1:
55 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 55

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 316 / 55

Advancing to step 3:
The number 55 fits into 316 5 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 275 from 316 and we're left with 41.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 419 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
55 can be fit into 419 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtracting 385 from 419 leaves us with 34.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 347 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
The number 55 fits into 347 6 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 576.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 330 from 347.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
170 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 576.3
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 165 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 576.3
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 576.309
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 576.309
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 576.30909
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 495 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 576.30909
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 55 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 576.3090909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 576.3090909
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

The final result is 576.3090909 with a remainder of 5e-08.
