Deci- Means 10 (0 to 9)
Let us proceed to the
next number system……
Counting from
0 to 7 what is your
favorite number?
and why?
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 are the 8 components
of an octal number system,
that is the base of 8.
÷, X and R
11210 ÷ 8 = 14 R 08
1010= (?)8
Divide the given decimal by 8
Multiply 0.25 by 8 = 2
Remainder ---- 2
Multiply 0.125 by 8 = 1
Remainder ---- 1
Re-write the remainder from lowest to highest
remainder
=128
Let’s have another example :
12010= (?)8
120 ÷8 = 15.0 0x8=0
Remainder ---- 0
15 ÷ 8 = 1.875 0.875 x 8 = 7
Remainder ---- 7
1 ÷ 8 = 0.125 0.125 x 8 = 1
Remainder ---- 1
=1708
Let us practice with the conversion
on your notebook
Answer:
25 ÷ 8
3÷8
= 3.125
= 0.375
Remainder ---- 1
Remainder ---- 3 = 318
Re-write the remainder from lowest to highest:
Answer:
112 ÷ 8 = 14 Remainder ---- 0
14 ÷ 8
1÷8
= 1.75
= 0.125
Remainder ---- 6
Remainder ---- 1 = 1608
Re-write the remainder from lowest to highest:
