Decimal 200 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (200)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 200 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(200)10 in octal is equal to:
(200)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 200, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 200 | 200 / 8 = 25 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 25 | 25 / 8 = 3 | Remainder is 1 |
MOD-8 of 3 | 3 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 3 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 200.
20010 = 3108
Hence,
200 in octal is 310
where,
200
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 200
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
310
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 200,
8 in 310
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (200)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 200 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 200 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 200 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 200 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (200)10.
