Decimal 465 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (465)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 465 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(465)10 in octal is equal to:
(465)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 465, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 465 | 465 / 8 = 58 | Remainder is 1 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 58 | 58 / 8 = 7 | Remainder is 2 |
MOD-8 of 7 | 7 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 7 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 465.
46510 = 7218
Hence,
465 in octal is 721
where,
465
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 465
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
721
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 465,
8 in 721
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (465)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 465 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 465 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 465 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 465 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (465)10.
