33644 octal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 33644 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 33644 from octal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 33644 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 33644 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 33644 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 33644 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:

4 × 8⁰ = 4
4 × 8¹ = 32
6 × 8² = 384
3 × 8³ = 1536
3 × 8⁴ = 12288

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

4 + 32 + 384 + 1536 + 12288 = 14244

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.

14244 ÷ 2 = 7122 with 0 remainder
7122 ÷ 2 = 3561 with 0 remainder
3561 ÷ 2 = 1780 with 1 remainder
1780 ÷ 2 = 890 with 0 remainder
890 ÷ 2 = 445 with 0 remainder
445 ÷ 2 = 222 with 1 remainder
222 ÷ 2 = 111 with 0 remainder
111 ÷ 2 = 55 with 1 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 33644 octal to binary:

33644 octal = 11011110100100 binary
