Let's divide 487862 by 24
The aim is to understand the frequency of 24 in 487862.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 24 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 24

Going ahead to step 2:
24 can be fit into 48 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 48 away from 48, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 7 / 24

Moving on to step 3:
24 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 24

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 24 fits into 78 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 203.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 72 from 78.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 66 / 24

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 66 by 24, we get 2 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2032.0
Subtract 48 from 66 to get 18.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 182 / 24

On to step 6:
24 can be fit into 182 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20327.0
Deduct 168 from 182 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
24 can be fit into 140 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20327.5
If we take 120 away from 140, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 24 fits into 200 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20327.58
Deduct 192 from 200 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
24 goes into 80 3 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20327.583
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 24, we get 3 with a remainder of 8.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20327.5833
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 20327.5833 with a remainder of 8e-05.
