Calculator Computation
1. Set the calculator to the ‘BASE’ mode by pressing:
[MODE]   [MODE]   [3 (BASE)]
2. Set the calculator to the desired number system by
pressing:
[BIN] → for base 2
[DEC] → for base 10
[OCT] → for base 8
Key in the following [For (e) and (f) only]:
(e)
[ BIN ] 100111 [ = ]  [ OCT ]
The screen display is: [478]
Therefore 1001112 = 478
(f)
[ OCT ] 157 [ = ]  [ BIN ]
The screen display is: [1101111]
Therefore 1578 = 11011112
