We divide 972482 by 26
The aim is to understand the frequency of 26 in 972482.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 26

Going ahead to step 2:
26 goes into 97 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 78 from 97 to get 19.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 192 / 26

On to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 192 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtract 182 from 192 to get 10.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 104 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
26 goes into 104 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 374.0
Subtracting 104 from 104 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 26

Moving on to step 5:
26 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3740.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 82 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
26 can be fit into 82 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37403.0
Subtract 78 from 82 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 40 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37403.1
If we take 26 away from 40, we end up 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.

Step 8:
26 goes into 140 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37403.15
Subtract 130 from 140 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 26 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37403.153
If we subtract 78 from 100, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
26 goes into 220 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37403.1538
Subtracting 208 from 220 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 26, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37403.15384
If we take 104 away from 120, 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 160 by 26, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37403.153846
Subtracting 156 from 160 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 40 by 26, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37403.1538461
If we subtract 26 from 40, 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 14:
140 divided by 26 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37403.15384615
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 130 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 37403.15384615 and a remainder of 1e-08.
