68 in Octal
Decimal 68 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (68)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 68 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(68)10 in octal is equal to:
(68)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 68, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
| MOD-8 of 68 | 68 / 8 = 8 | Remainder is 4 → LSB |
| 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 68.
6810 = 1048
Hence,
68 in octal is 104
where,
6810 is the given decimal number,
10 in 6810 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1048 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 68,
8 in 1048 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (68)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 68 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 68 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 68 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 68 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (68)10.
