Let's divide 5287731 by 971
The aim is to understand the frequency of 971 in 5287731.

On to step 1:
971 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 971

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 971, we get 0 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 528 / 971

Advancing to step 3:
The number 971 fits into 528 0 times, leaving a remainder of 528.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 528 after subtracting 0 from 528.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 528, then carry on: 5287 / 971

On to step 4:
The number 971 fits into 5287 5 times, leaving a remainder of 432.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 4855 from 5287 leaves us with 432.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 432 and repeat the process: 4327 / 971

Step 5:
The number 971 fits into 4327 4 times, leaving a remainder of 443.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we take 3884 away from 4327, we end up with 443.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 443, then repeat: 4433 / 971

Step 6:
4433 divided by 971 is 4 with a remainder of 549.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 544.0
Subtracting 3884 from 4433 leaves us with 549.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 549, then carry on: 5491 / 971

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 5491 by 971, we get 5 with a remainder of 636.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5445.0
If we take 4855 away from 5491, we end up with 636.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6360, and continue the process.

Step 8:
6360 divided by 971 is 6 with a remainder of 534.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5445.6
If we subtract 5826 from 6360, we get 534.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 5340 by 971, we get 5 and a remainder of 485.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5445.65
The remainder is 485 after subtracting 4855 from 5340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4850, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
4850 divided by 971 is 4 with a remainder of 966.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5445.654
Subtracting 3884 from 4850 leaves us with 966.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 9660 by 971, we get 9 with a remainder of 921.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5445.6549
Subtracting 8739 from 9660 leaves us with 921.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
971 can be fit into 9210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 471.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5445.65499
If we subtract 8739 from 9210, we get 471.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4710, and continue the process.

The final result is 5445.65499 with a remainder of 0.000471.
