580 in Octal

Decimal 580 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (580)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 580 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.

(580)10 in octal is equal to:
(580)10 = (?)8

Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 580, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-8 of 580	580 / 8 = 72	Remainder is 4 → LSB
MOD-8 of 72	72 / 8 = 9	Remainder is 0
MOD-8 of 9	9 / 8 = 1	Remainder is 1
MOD-8 of 1	1 / 8 = 0	Remainder is 1 → MSB

Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 580.
580₁₀ = 1104₈

Hence,
580 in octal is 1104

where,
580₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 580₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1104₈ is the octal equivalent of the decimal 580,
8 in 1104₈ represents the base-8 or octal number system.

Important Notes: (580)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 580 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.

1. The first remainder of MOD-8 of 580 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
2. The final remainder of MOD-8 of 580 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
3. The remainders of MOD-8 of 580 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (580)10.
