We divide 1153785 by 172
The aim is to understand the frequency of 172 in 1153785.

Step 1:
172 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 172

Step 2:
When dividing 11 by 172, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 11, we end up with 11.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 115 / 172

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 172 fits into 115 0 times, leaving a remainder of 115.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 115 to get 115.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 115, then repeat: 1153 / 172

Going ahead to step 4:
172 can be fit into 1153 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 121.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 1032 from 1153 leaves us with 121.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 121, then repeat: 1217 / 172

Step 5:
If we divide 1217 by 172, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 67.0
Subtracting 1204 from 1217 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 138 / 172

Step 6:
If we divide 138 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 138.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 670.0
Subtracting 0 from 138 leaves us with 138.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 138 and repeat the process: 1385 / 172

Advancing to step 7:
172 can be fit into 1385 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6708.0
Deduct 1376 from 1385 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 172 fits into 90 0 times, leaving a remainder of 90.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6708.0
Subtracting 0 from 90 leaves us with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
172 goes into 900 5 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6708.05
If we take 860 away from 900, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
172 goes into 400 2 times with a remainder of 56.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6708.052
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 344 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 560 by 172, we get 3 with a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6708.0523
Subtract 516 from 560 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 440 by 172, we get 2 and a remainder of 96.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6708.05232
If we take 344 away from 440, we end up with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 960 by 172, we get 5 with a remainder of 100.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6708.052325
Subtracting 860 from 960 leaves us with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
172 can be fit into 1000 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 140.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6708.0523255
Subtract 860 from 1000 to get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6708.0523255 and a remainder of 1.4e-06.
