485 in Octal

Decimal 485 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (485)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 485 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.

(485)10 in octal is equal to:
(485)10 = (?)8

Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 485, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-8 of 485	485 / 8 = 60	Remainder is 5 → LSB
MOD-8 of 60	60 / 8 = 7	Remainder is 4
MOD-8 of 7	7 / 8 = 0	Remainder is 7 → MSB

Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 485.
485₁₀ = 745₈

Hence,
485 in octal is 745

where,
485₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 485₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
745₈ is the octal equivalent of the decimal 485,
8 in 745₈ represents the base-8 or octal number system.

Important Notes: (485)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 485 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.

1. The first remainder of MOD-8 of 485 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
2. The final remainder of MOD-8 of 485 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
3. The remainders of MOD-8 of 485 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (485)10.
