Here we will show you how to convert the octal number 73756 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 73756 from octal to binary are explained below.
Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 73756 by 8⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 73756 by 8¹, multiply the third to last digit in 73756 by 8², multiply the fourth to last digit in 73756 by 8³, and so on, until all the digits are used:
6 × 8⁰ = 6
5 × 8¹ = 40
7 × 8² = 448
3 × 8³ = 1536
7 × 8⁴ = 28672
Step 2)
Next, we add up all the products we got from Step 1, like this:
6 + 40 + 448 + 1536 + 28672 = 30702
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.
30702 ÷ 2 = 15351 with 0 remainder
15351 ÷ 2 = 7675 with 1 remainder
7675 ÷ 2 = 3837 with 1 remainder
3837 ÷ 2 = 1918 with 1 remainder
1918 ÷ 2 = 959 with 0 remainder
959 ÷ 2 = 479 with 1 remainder
479 ÷ 2 = 239 with 1 remainder
239 ÷ 2 = 119 with 1 remainder
119 ÷ 2 = 59 with 1 remainder
59 ÷ 2 = 29 with 1 remainder
29 ÷ 2 = 14 with 1 remainder
14 ÷ 2 = 7 with 0 remainder
7 ÷ 2 = 3 with 1 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 73756 octal to binary:
73756 octal = 111011111101110 binary
