Let's divide 588731 by 77
The aim is to understand the frequency of 77 in 588731.

On to step 1:
77 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 77

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 58 by 77, we get 0 with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 0 from 58.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 588 / 77

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 588 by 77, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 539 from 588 and we're left with 49.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 497 / 77

Moving on to step 4:
497 divided by 77 is 6 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76.0
If we take 462 away from 497, we end up with 35.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 353 / 77

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 353 by 77, we get 4 and a remainder of 45.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 764.0
Deduct 308 from 353 and we're left with 45.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 451 / 77

On to step 6:
If we divide 451 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7645.0
If we subtract 385 from 451, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 660 by 77, we get 8 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7645.8
Subtracting 616 from 660 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
77 goes into 440 5 times with a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7645.85
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 385 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 550 by 77, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7645.857
If we subtract 539 from 550, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 110 by 77, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7645.8571
Deduct 77 from 110 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 330 by 77, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7645.85714
Deduct 308 from 330 and we're left with 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 12:
If we divide 220 by 77, we get 2 and a remainder of 66.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7645.857142
Subtract 154 from 220 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 660 by 77, we get 8 with a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7645.8571428
Subtracting 616 from 660 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 440 by 77, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7645.85714285
Deduct 385 from 440 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Our division results in 7645.85714285 with a remaining 5.5e-08.
