Answer 1

    String sent = "asdAdFfaedfawghke4";//s.nextLine();      
    int length = sent.length();
    char frequentChar = ' ';
    int maxLength = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
        char currentChar = sent.charAt(0);
        sent = sent.replaceAll(currentChar + "", "");//remove all charactes from sent
        if (maxLength < (length - sent.length())) {
            frequentChar=currentChar;
            maxLength = length - sent.length();
        }
        System.out.println("Char : " + currentChar + " Occurance " + (length - sent.length()));
        length = sent.length();
    }
    System.out.println("Max Occurance : " + maxLength);

Output :

Char : a Occurance 3
Char : s Occurance 1
Char : d Occurance 3
Char : A Occurance 1
Char : F Occurance 1
Char : f Occurance 2
Char : e Occurance 2
Frequent Char : a
Max Occurance : 3
