We divide 477501 by 72
The aim is to understand the frequency of 72 in 477501.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 72 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
72 goes into 47 0 times with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 47 to get 47.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 477 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
72 goes into 477 6 times with a remainder of 45.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 432 from 477 to get 45.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 455 / 72

On to step 4:
72 goes into 455 6 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 66.0
If we subtract 432 from 455, we get 23.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 230 / 72

Step 5:
When dividing 230 by 72, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 663.0
Deduct 216 from 230 and we're left with 14.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 141 / 72

Let's proceed to step 6:
72 can be fit into 141 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6631.0
If we take 72 away from 141, we end up with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 690 by 72, we get 9 with a remainder of 42.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6631.9
If we take 648 away from 690, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 420 by 72, we get 5 and a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6631.95
Subtract 360 from 420 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 9:
600 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6631.958
If we subtract 576 from 600, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
72 can be fit into 240 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6631.9583
Deduct 216 from 240 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
72 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6631.95833
If we take 216 away from 240, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6631.95833, with a leftover of 2.4e-05.
