38165972 divided by 128 
We're looking to find how many times 128 goes into 38165972.

Advancing to step 1:
128 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 128

Moving on to step 2:
The number 128 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 381 / 128

Going ahead to step 3:
128 can be fit into 381 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 125.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 256 from 381, we get 125.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 125, then repeat: 1256 / 128

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 1256 by 128, we get 9 and a remainder of 104.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 1152 from 1256 leaves us with 104.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 104, then repeat: 1045 / 128

Advancing to step 5:
128 goes into 1045 8 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 298.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 1024 from 1045.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 219 / 128

Step 6:
128 goes into 219 1 times with a remainder of 91.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2981.0
The remainder is 91 after subtracting 128 from 219.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 91 and repeat the process: 917 / 128

Step 7:
128 goes into 917 7 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29817.0
Subtract 896 from 917 to get 21.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 212 / 128

Step 8:
The number 128 fits into 212 1 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 298171.0
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 128 from 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
128 goes into 840 6 times with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 298171.6
Subtract 768 from 840 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 128 fits into 720 5 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 298171.65
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 640 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
800 divided by 128 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 298171.656
Subtract 768 from 800 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
320 divided by 128 is 2 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 298171.6562
If we take 256 away from 320, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 128 fits into 640 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 298171.65625
Deduct 640 from 640 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
0 divided by 128 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 298171.65625
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 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 15:
If we divide 0 by 128, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 298171.65625
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 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 298171.65625 with a balance of 0.0.
