56770 octal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 56770 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 56770 from octal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 56770 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 56770 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 56770 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 56770 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:

0 × 8⁰ = 0
7 × 8¹ = 56
7 × 8² = 448
6 × 8³ = 3072
5 × 8⁴ = 20480

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

0 + 56 + 448 + 3072 + 20480 = 24056

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.

24056 ÷ 2 = 12028 with 0 remainder
12028 ÷ 2 = 6014 with 0 remainder
6014 ÷ 2 = 3007 with 0 remainder
3007 ÷ 2 = 1503 with 1 remainder
1503 ÷ 2 = 751 with 1 remainder
751 ÷ 2 = 375 with 1 remainder
375 ÷ 2 = 187 with 1 remainder
187 ÷ 2 = 93 with 1 remainder
93 ÷ 2 = 46 with 1 remainder
46 ÷ 2 = 23 with 0 remainder
23 ÷ 2 = 11 with 1 remainder
11 ÷ 2 = 5 with 1 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 56770 octal to binary:

56770 octal = 101110111111000 binary
