Conversion of binary number 1011102 to octal is
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
101110 is 56 in octal form
(101110)2 = (56)8
Step 1: Write down the binary number (101110)2
Group all the digits in sets of three starting from the LSB (far right). Add zeros to the left of the last digit if there aren't enough digits to make a set of three.
= 101 110
Step 2: Use the table below to convert each set of three into an octal digit. In this case,
101 = 5, 110 = 6.
So, the number 56 is the octal equivalent to 101110 in binary.
To convert from binary to octal use the following table:
Bin: 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111
Octal: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
