We divide 987429 by 64
The aim is to understand the frequency of 64 in 987429.

Advancing to step 1:
64 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 64

Step 2:
The number 64 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 64 from 98 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 347 / 64

Going ahead to step 3:
64 goes into 347 5 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 320 away from 347, we end up with 27.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 274 / 64

Step 4:
The number 64 fits into 274 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 154.0
Deduct 256 from 274 and we're left with 18.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 182 / 64

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 182 by 64, we get 2 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1542.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 128 from 182.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 549 / 64

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 549 by 64, we get 8 with a remainder of 37.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15428.0
If we subtract 512 from 549, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
370 divided by 64 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15428.5
Subtract 320 from 370 to get 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 8:
When dividing 500 by 64, we get 7 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15428.57
Deduct 448 from 500 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 9:
64 goes into 520 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15428.578
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 512 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 64 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 15428.5781
If we take 64 away from 80, 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 64, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15428.57812
Subtract 128 from 160 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
64 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15428.578125
Subtract 320 from 320 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 64 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15428.578125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 64 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15428.578125
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 15428.578125, and the remainder is 0.0.
