7. Binary to Octal Conversion
Example : (111110101011.0011)2
1. Firstly, we make pairs of three bits on both sides of the binary point.
111 110 101 011 . 001 1
On the right side of the binary point, the last pair has only one bit. To make it a
complete pair of three bits, we added two zeros on the extreme side.
111 110 101 011 . 001 100
2. Then, write the octal digits, which correspond to each pair.
7 6 5 3 . 1 4
So (111110101011.0011)2=(7653.14)8
Exercise

111 1010 1011 . 0011
On the left side of the binary point, the first pair has three bits. To make it a complete
pair of four bits, add one zero on the extreme side.
0111 1010 1011 . 0011
2. Then, we write the hexadecimal digits, which correspond to each pair.

Example 1: (152.25)8
Step 1:
We write the three-bit binary digit for 1, 5, 2, and 5.
(152.25)8=(001 101 010 . 010 101)2
So, the binary number of the octal number 152.25 is (1101010.010101)2
Step 2:
1. Now, we make pairs of four bits on both sides of the binary point.
110 1010 . 0101 01
On the left side of the binary point, the first pair has only three digit, and on the right
side, the last pair has only two-digit. To make them complete pairs of four bits, add
zeros on extreme sides.
0110 1010 . 0101 0100
2. Now, we write the hexadecimal digits, which correspond to each pair.
( 0110 1010 . 0101 0100)2 = (6A.54)16

Step 1:
We write the four-bit binary digit for 1, 5, 2, A, and 5.
(152A.25)16=(0001 0101 0010 1010 . 0010 0101)2
So, the binary number of hexadecimal number 152A.25
is (1010100101010.00100101)2
Step 2:
3. Then, we make pairs of three bits on both sides of the binary point.
