We look at the division of 2981439 by 79 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 79 in 2981439.

Advancing to step 1:
2 divided by 79 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 79

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 29 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 29.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 29 and we're left with 29.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 298 / 79

Step 3:
79 goes into 298 3 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 237 from 298, we get 61.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 611 / 79

Step 4:
79 can be fit into 611 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Deduct 553 from 611 and we're left with 58.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 584 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
The number 79 fits into 584 7 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 377.0
Subtract 553 from 584 to get 31.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 313 / 79

On to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 313 3 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3773.0
If we subtract 237 from 313, we get 76.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 76, then repeat: 769 / 79

Advancing to step 7:
The number 79 fits into 769 9 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37739.0
Subtracting 711 from 769 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
79 goes into 580 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37739.7
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 553 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 270 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37739.73
If we take 237 away from 270, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
79 can be fit into 330 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37739.734
If we subtract 316 from 330, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
79 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37739.7341
If we subtract 79 from 140, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
79 goes into 610 7 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37739.73417
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 553 from 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 570 by 79, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37739.734177
Subtracting 553 from 570 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 37739.734177, and the remainder is 1.7e-06.
