We're dividing 40888124 by 148 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 148 in 40888124.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 148 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 148

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 40 by 148, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 408 / 148

Going ahead to step 3:
148 can be fit into 408 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 112.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 296 from 408, we get 112.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 112, then repeat: 1128 / 148

Advancing to step 4:
148 goes into 1128 7 times with a remainder of 92.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we subtract 1036 from 1128, we get 92.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 92 and repeat the process: 928 / 148

Moving on to step 5:
928 divided by 148 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 276.0
If we take 888 away from 928, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 401 / 148

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 401 by 148, we get 2 with a remainder of 105.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2762.0
Subtracting 296 from 401 leaves us with 105.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 105 and continue: 1052 / 148

On to step 7:
The number 148 fits into 1052 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27627.0
Subtract 1036 from 1052 to get 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 148

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 148 fits into 164 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 276271.0
If we subtract 148 from 164, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 160 by 148, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 276271.1
Deduct 148 from 160 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 120 by 148, we get 0 and a remainder of 120.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 276271.1
The remainder is 120 after subtracting 0 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
148 can be fit into 1200 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 276271.108
If we take 1184 away from 1200, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
148 goes into 160 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 276271.1081
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 148 fits into 120 0 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 276271.1081
Subtract 0 from 120 to get 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
148 goes into 1200 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 276271.108108
Subtracting 1184 from 1200 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
The number 148 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 276271.1081081
If we take 148 away from 160, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
The number 148 fits into 120 0 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 276271.1081081
Deduct 0 from 120 and we're left with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 276271.1081081 with a balance of 1.2e-07.
