25040 octal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 25040 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 25040 from octal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 25040 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 25040 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 25040 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 25040 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:

0 × 8⁰ = 0
4 × 8¹ = 32
0 × 8² = 0
5 × 8³ = 2560
2 × 8⁴ = 8192

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

0 + 32 + 0 + 2560 + 8192 = 10784

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.

10784 ÷ 2 = 5392 with 0 remainder
5392 ÷ 2 = 2696 with 0 remainder
2696 ÷ 2 = 1348 with 0 remainder
1348 ÷ 2 = 674 with 0 remainder
674 ÷ 2 = 337 with 0 remainder
337 ÷ 2 = 168 with 1 remainder
168 ÷ 2 = 84 with 0 remainder
84 ÷ 2 = 42 with 0 remainder
42 ÷ 2 = 21 with 0 remainder
21 ÷ 2 = 10 with 1 remainder
10 ÷ 2 = 5 with 0 remainder
5 ÷ 2 = 2 with 1 remainder
2 ÷ 2 = 1 with 0 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 25040 octal to binary:

25040 octal = 10101000100000 binary
