Decimal 457 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (457)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 457 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(457)10 in octal is equal to:
(457)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 457, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 457 | 457 / 8 = 57 | Remainder is 1 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 57 | 57 / 8 = 7 | Remainder is 1 |
MOD-8 of 7 | 7 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 7 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 457.
45710 = 7118
Hence,
457 in octal is 711
where,
457
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 457
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
711
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 457,
8 in 711
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (457)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 457 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 457 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 457 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 457 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (457)10.
