Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 3320 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 3320 from octal to binary are explained below.
Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 3320 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 3320 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 3320 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 3320 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:
0 × 8⁰ = 0
2 × 8¹ = 16
3 × 8² = 192
3 × 8³ = 1536
Step 2)
Next, we add up all the products we got from Step 1, like this:
0 + 16 + 192 + 1536 = 1744
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.
1744 ÷ 2 = 872 with 0 remainder
872 ÷ 2 = 436 with 0 remainder
436 ÷ 2 = 218 with 0 remainder
218 ÷ 2 = 109 with 0 remainder
109 ÷ 2 = 54 with 1 remainder
54 ÷ 2 = 27 with 0 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 3320 octal to binary:
3320 octal = 11011010000 binary
