Decimal 824 in octal conversion provides the detailed information on what is the octal equivalent of (824)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 824 to its octal (base-8) equivalent.
(824)10 in octal is equal to:
(824)10 = (?)8
Perform successive MOD-8 operation for decimal 824, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-8 of 824 | 824 / 8 = 103 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
MOD-8 of 103 | 103 / 8 = 12 | Remainder is 7 |
MOD-8 of 12 | 12 / 8 = 1 | Remainder is 4 |
MOD-8 of 1 | 1 / 8 = 0 | Remainder is 1 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the octal equivalent of 824.
82410 = 14708
Hence,
824 in octal is 1470
where,
824
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 824
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1470
8 is the octal equivalent of the decimal 824,
8 in 1470
8 represents the base-8 or octal number system.
Important Notes: (824)10 in Octal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 824 into a (base-8) octal equivalent.
- The first remainder of MOD-8 of 824 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The final remainder of MOD-8 of 824 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-8 of 824 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the octal equivalent for the given decimal number (824)10.
