65566 octal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 65566 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 65566 from octal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 65566 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 65566 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 65566 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 65566 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:

6 × 8⁰ = 6
6 × 8¹ = 48
5 × 8² = 320
5 × 8³ = 2560
6 × 8⁴ = 24576

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

6 + 48 + 320 + 2560 + 24576 = 27510

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.

27510 ÷ 2 = 13755 with 0 remainder
13755 ÷ 2 = 6877 with 1 remainder
6877 ÷ 2 = 3438 with 1 remainder
3438 ÷ 2 = 1719 with 0 remainder
1719 ÷ 2 = 859 with 1 remainder
859 ÷ 2 = 429 with 1 remainder
429 ÷ 2 = 214 with 1 remainder
214 ÷ 2 = 107 with 0 remainder
107 ÷ 2 = 53 with 1 remainder
53 ÷ 2 = 26 with 1 remainder
26 ÷ 2 = 13 with 0 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 65566 octal to binary:

65566 octal = 110101101110110 binary
