We're dividing 804842 by 74 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 804842.

On to step 1:
The number 74 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 80 / 74

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 80 by 74, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 74 from 80 to get 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 74

Going ahead to step 3:
64 divided by 74 is 0 with a remainder of 64.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 0 from 64.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 64 and continue: 648 / 74

On to step 4:
If we divide 648 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108.0
Subtract 592 from 648 to get 56.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 564 / 74

Step 5:
74 can be fit into 564 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1087.0
Subtract 518 from 564 to get 46.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 462 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 462 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10876.0
Deduct 444 from 462 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
74 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10876.2
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 148 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 320 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10876.24
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 296 from 320.
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 9:
74 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10876.243
Subtracting 222 from 240 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10876.2432
Subtracting 148 from 180 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
74 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10876.24324
Subtracting 296 from 320 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 240 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 10876.243243
Deduct 222 from 240 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
74 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10876.2432432
If we subtract 148 from 180, we 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.

Moving on to step 14:
320 divided by 74 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10876.24324324
If we subtract 296 from 320, 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.

After the division, we end up with 10876.24324324 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
