999 can be fit into 5940 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 945.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48473.45945
The remainder is 945 after subtracting 4995 from 5940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
999 can be fit into 9450 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 459.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48473.459459
Subtracting 8991 from 9450 leaves us with 459.
