For a particular item, you have decided to order using the economic order quantity $($EOQ$)$ calculation. The annual demand for the item is $9700$ units. The cost per unit is $$8.$ For each order placed, the supplier charges you a fixed fee of $$90.$ You have determined that your carrying cost is $35\%$ per year. If you consistently order the EOQ, how many orders per year will you place with the supplier? Round your answer to one decimal place $($e$.$g$.7\mathrm{.}9).$
