15671 octal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 15671 to a binary number. First note that the octal number system has eight different digits (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7) and the binary number system has only two different digits (0 and 1).

The four steps used to convert 15671 from octal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 15671 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 15671 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 15671 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 15671 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:

1 × 8⁰ = 1
7 × 8¹ = 56
6 × 8² = 384
5 × 8³ = 2560
1 × 8⁴ = 4096

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

1 + 56 + 384 + 2560 + 4096 = 7097

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

7097 ÷ 2 = 3548 with 1 remainder
3548 ÷ 2 = 1774 with 0 remainder
1774 ÷ 2 = 887 with 0 remainder
887 ÷ 2 = 443 with 1 remainder
443 ÷ 2 = 221 with 1 remainder
221 ÷ 2 = 110 with 1 remainder
110 ÷ 2 = 55 with 0 remainder
55 ÷ 2 = 27 with 1 remainder
27 ÷ 2 = 13 with 1 remainder
13 ÷ 2 = 6 with 1 remainder
6 ÷ 2 = 3 with 0 remainder
3 ÷ 2 = 1 with 1 remainder
1 ÷ 2 = 0 with 1 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 15671 octal to binary:

15671 octal = 1101110111001 binary
