Let's divide 598969 by 4
The aim is to understand the frequency of 4 in 598969.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 goes into 5 1 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 4 from 5 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 4

Step 2:
When dividing 19 by 4, we get 4 with a remainder of 3.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 16 from 19.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 4

Going ahead to step 3:
4 can be fit into 38 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149.0
If we take 36 away from 38, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 4

On to step 4:
When dividing 29 by 4, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1497.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 28 from 29.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 4

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 4 fits into 16 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14974.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 16 from 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 4

Going ahead to step 6:
4 goes into 9 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 149742.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 8 from 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 4, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149742.2
Subtracting 8 from 10 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
4 goes into 20 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149742.25
If we subtract 20 from 20, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 149742.25
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 4 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149742.25
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 149742.25 with a balance of 0.0.
