Brief About 7490 IC
74LS90
is basically a MOD-10 decade counter that generate a BCD output code. It consists of four master-slave JK flip-flop, which are internally connected to provide MOD-2 (count to 2) counter and MOD-5 counter. 74LS90 also have an independent toggle JK flip-flop by CLKA and other three are driven by the CLKB.

BCD decade counter
, by giving HIGH and LOW logic to the CLKA pin, IC start counts from zero to 8 at every HIGH logic. If you want to display the number on a 7-segment display you need a seven segment display driver IC.
