76CD hexadecimal to octal

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 76CD to an octal number. First note that the hexadecimal number system has sixteen different digits (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F) and the octal number system has only eight different digits (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7).

The four steps used to convert 76CD from hexadecimal to octal are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 76CD by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 76CD by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 76CD by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 76CD by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

D × 16⁰ = 13
C × 16¹ = 192
6 × 16² = 1536
7 × 16³ = 28672

Remember that the hexadecimal number system has sixteen different digits, so when doing the above calculation, we use the following values if applicable: A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, and F=15.

Step 2)
Next, we add up all the products we got from Step 1, like this:

13 + 192 + 1536 + 28672 = 30413

Step 3)
Now we divide the sum from Step 2 by 8. Put the remainder aside. Then divide the whole part by 8 again, and put the remainder aside again. Keep doing this until the whole part is 0.

30413 ÷ 8 = 3801 with 5 remainder
3801 ÷ 8 = 475 with 1 remainder
475 ÷ 8 = 59 with 3 remainder
59 ÷ 8 = 7 with 3 remainder
7 ÷ 8 = 0 with 7 remainder

Step 4)
In the final step, we take the remainders from Step 3 and put them together in reverse order to get our answer to 76CD hexadecimal to octal:

76CD hexadecimal = 73315 octal
