Decimal 384 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (384)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 384 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(384)10 in octal is equal to:
(384)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 384, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 384 | 384 / 8 = 48 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 48 | 48 / 8 = 6 | Remainder is 0 |
MOD-8 of 6 | 6 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 6 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 384.
38410 = 6008
Hence,
384 in octal is 600
where,
384
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 384
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
600
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 384,
8 in 600
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (384)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 384 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 384 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 384 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 384 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (384)10.
