Decimal 529 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (529)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 529 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(529)10 in octal is equal to:
(529)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 529, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 529 | 529 / 8 = 66 | Remainder is 1 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 66 | 66 / 8 = 8 | Remainder is 2 |
MOD-8 of 8 | 8 / 8 = 1 | Remainder is 0 |
MOD-8 of 1 | 1 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 1 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 529.
52910 = 10218
Hence,
529 in octal is 1021
where,
529
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 529
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1021
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 529,
8 in 1021
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (529)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 529 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 529 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
