Decimal 213 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (213)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 213 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(213)10 in octal is equal to:
(213)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 213, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 213 | 213 / 8 = 26 | Remainder is 5 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 26 | 26 / 8 = 3 | Remainder is 2 |
MOD-8 of 3 | 3 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 3 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 213.
21310 = 3258
Hence,
213 in octal is 325
where,
213
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 213
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
325
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 213,
8 in 325
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (213)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 213 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 213 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 213 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 213 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (213)10.
