We're dividing 140709 by 47 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 47 in 140709.

Step 1:
The number 47 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 47

Step 2:
When dividing 14 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 140 / 47

Going ahead to step 3:
47 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 94 away from 140, we end up with 46.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 467 / 47

Step 4:
467 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 44.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we take 423 away from 467, we end up with 44.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 440 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
47 can be fit into 440 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 299.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 423 from 440.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 179 / 47

Going ahead to step 6:
47 goes into 179 3 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2993.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 141 from 179.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
47 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2993.8
Deduct 376 from 380 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2993.8
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 9:
47 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2993.808
If we take 376 away from 400, we end up 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.

On to step 10:
47 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2993.8085
Deduct 235 from 240 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2993.80851
Subtract 47 from 50 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
30 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2993.80851
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 300 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2993.8085106
If we subtract 282 from 300, we get 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 14:
If we divide 180 by 47, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2993.80851063
Deduct 141 from 180 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

The final result is 2993.80851063 with a remainder of 3.9e-08.
