Question

Explain how to convert a decimal number to octal number system

Answer 1

Answer:

Convert Decimal to Octal with Steps

Write the given decimal number.

If the given decimal number is less than 8 the octal number is the same.

If the decimal number is greater than 7 then divide the number by 8.

Note the remainder, we get after division.

Repeat step 3 and 4 with the quotient till it is less than 8.

Now, write the remainders in reverse order (bottom to top)

The resultant is the equivalent octal number to the given decimal number.
