Is 889 an octal number?
No - octal numbers use only the digits 0-7.
What is radix in number system?
The radix refers to the base of a number system: the total number of possible digits. The decimal number system that we all use is base ten, as it has ten distinct digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9). Commonly used bases in computing include binary, octal, and hexadecimal, which have two, eight, and sixteen digits, respectively.
What are the values of each bit contributing to the value of the number in octal number system?
Each octal digit is represented exactly by 3 bits: 0 = 000 1 = 001 2 = 010 3 = 011 4 = 100 5 = 101 6 = 110 7 = 111 Using the normal binary representation of the number. With a string of octal digits, each digit is the next 3 bits, for example the octal number 04751 is: 04751 = 000 100 111 101 001 in binary The spaces are for ease of reading, showing each octal digit in binary; without any spacing it becomes: 000100111101001 By changing the spacing to: 000 1001 1110 1001 means it can be easily read in hexadecimal as 0x09e9.
Conversion of binary to octal?
Binary is a base 2 number system, while octal is base 8. This happens to make conversion between binary and octal fairly trivial, although more complex than conversion to hexadecimal. To convert to octal from binary, take each three bits, starting from the least significant bit, and convert them to their octal equivalent. Examples: 25510 = 111111112 = 11 111 111 = 3778 17410 = 101011102 = 10 101 110 = 2568 You can repeat this process for as many bits as you need. A 24-bit number should translate into 8 octal numbers, for reference.
Convert the hexadecimal number A45C to octal and decimal?
A45C: Decimal = 42076 Octal = 122134
