We're dividing 968996 by 34 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 34 in 968996.

Advancing to step 1:
9 divided by 34 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 96 / 34

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 96 by 34, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 68 from 96, we get 28.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 288 / 34

On to step 3:
288 divided by 34 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 272 away from 288, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 169 / 34

Let's proceed to step 4:
169 divided by 34 is 4 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 284.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 136 from 169.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 339 / 34

Step 5:
If we divide 339 by 34, we get 9 and a remainder of 33.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2849.0
Deduct 306 from 339 and we're left with 33.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 336 / 34

Moving on to step 6:
34 goes into 336 9 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 28499.0
Subtracting 306 from 336 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.

On to step 7:
34 can be fit into 300 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28499.8
If we subtract 272 from 300, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 34 fits into 280 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28499.88
If we take 272 away from 280, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 28499.88, with a leftover of 0.008.
