57234 octal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 57234 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 57234 from octal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 57234 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 57234 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 57234 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 57234 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:

4 × 8⁰ = 4
3 × 8¹ = 24
2 × 8² = 128
7 × 8³ = 3584
5 × 8⁴ = 20480

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

4 + 24 + 128 + 3584 + 20480 = 24220

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.

24220 ÷ 2 = 12110 with 0 remainder
12110 ÷ 2 = 6055 with 0 remainder
6055 ÷ 2 = 3027 with 1 remainder
3027 ÷ 2 = 1513 with 1 remainder
1513 ÷ 2 = 756 with 1 remainder
756 ÷ 2 = 378 with 0 remainder
378 ÷ 2 = 189 with 0 remainder
189 ÷ 2 = 94 with 1 remainder
94 ÷ 2 = 47 with 0 remainder
47 ÷ 2 = 23 with 1 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 57234 octal to binary:

57234 octal = 101111010011100 binary
