We look at the division of 253482 by 16 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 16 in 253482.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 16

Step 2:
25 divided by 16 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 16 from 25.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 93 / 16

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 93 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 80 from 93 to get 13.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 134 / 16

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 16 fits into 134 8 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 158.0
If we subtract 128 from 134, we get 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
16 goes into 68 4 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1584.0
If we take 64 away from 68, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 16

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 42 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15842.0
Deduct 32 from 42 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 16 fits into 100 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15842.6
Subtracting 96 from 100 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 40 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15842.62
Deduct 32 from 40 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.

On to step 9:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15842.625
Deduct 80 from 80 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 10:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15842.625
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15842.625
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 15842.625, with a leftover of 0.0.
