Decimal 1021 in Octal form conversion provides the detailed information on what is the Octal equivalent of (1021)10, and the step-by-step solution using the most easiest method for how to convert decimal (base-10) number 1021 to its Octal (base-8) equivalent.
(1021)10 in Octal is equal to:
(1021)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 1021, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
| MOD-8 of 1021 | 1021 / 8 = 127 | Remainder is 5 → LSB |
| MOD-8 of 127 | 127 / 8 = 15 | Remainder is 7 |
| MOD-8 of 15 | 15 / 8 = 1 | Remainder is 7 |
| MOD-8 of 1 | 1 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 1 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the Octal equivalent of 1021.
102110 = 17758
Hence,
1021 in Octal is 1775
where,
1021
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 1021
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1775
8 is the Octal equivalent of the decimal 1021,
8 in 1775
8 represents the base-8 or Octal number system.
Important Notes: (1021)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 1021 into a (base-8) Octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 1021 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 1021 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 1021 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the Octal equivalent for the given decimal number (1021)10.
