We look at the division of 988699 by 56 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 56 in 988699.

Step 1:
The number 56 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 56

On to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 56 from 98 to get 42.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 428 / 56

Step 3:
If we divide 428 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 392 from 428 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 366 / 56

Step 4:
56 goes into 366 6 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtracting 336 from 366 leaves us with 30.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 309 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
56 can be fit into 309 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1765.0
Deduct 280 from 309 and we're left with 29.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 299 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 299 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 19.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17655.0
If we subtract 280 from 299, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
190 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17655.3
If we take 168 away from 190, we end up 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.

Step 8:
220 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 52.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17655.33
Deduct 168 from 220 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final result is 17655.33 with a remainder of 0.052.
