Decimal 377 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (377)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 377 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(377)10 in octal is equal to:
(377)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 377, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 377 | 377 / 8 = 47 | Remainder is 1 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 47 | 47 / 8 = 5 | Remainder is 7 |
MOD-8 of 5 | 5 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 5 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 377.
37710 = 5718
Hence,
377 in octal is 571
where,
377
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 377
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
571
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 377,
8 in 571
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (377)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 377 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 377 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 377 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 377 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (377)10.
