Binary to Octal Conversion
Summary
TLDRThis video tutorial explains the process of converting binary numbers to their octal equivalents. It demonstrates the method by breaking down the binary numbers into groups of three, starting from the right. Each group is then translated into its decimal value, considering the place values (4, 2, 1). The tutorial walks through multiple examples, including handling cases where the binary number has more or fewer than six digits by adding zeros. The examples show step-by-step calculations, converting binary numbers like '110101' to '65' in octal, and '100111' to '47'. The video is an educational resource for understanding base conversion.
Takeaways
- 📚 Converting binary to octal involves grouping binary digits into sets of three.
- 🔢 Each group of three binary digits is equivalent to a single octal digit.
- 💡 If the binary number has a remainder when divided into groups of three, pad with zeros on the left.
- 👉 For each group, calculate the octal value by multiplying each binary digit by its positional value (4, 2, 1) and summing the results.
- 🌟 The example '1 1 0 1 0 1' converts to '65' in octal by calculating 4+2 for the first group and 4+1 for the second.
- 🔑 The binary '1 0 0 1 1 1' translates to '47' in octal, with '100' becoming '4' and '111' becoming '7'.
- 🧩 For a seven-digit binary number like '1 1 1 1 0 1 0', add zeros to complete the groups and convert to '176' in octal.
- 🎯 When converting '1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0', each group '010', '011', and '011' becomes '3', '3', and '2' in octal, respectively.
- 📈 The process is systematic and can be applied to any binary number to find its octal equivalent.
- 📝 Practice is key to mastering binary to octal conversion, as demonstrated through multiple examples in the script.
Q & A
What is the process of converting a binary number to an octal number?
-To convert a binary number to an octal number, you separate the binary number into groups of three digits, starting from the right. If there aren't enough digits to make a group of three, you add zeros to the left. Then, each group of three is converted to its octal equivalent by calculating the sum of the binary digits multiplied by their positional values (4, 2, and 1 from left to right).
How do you handle a binary number that doesn't divide evenly into groups of three when converting to octal?
-If a binary number doesn't divide evenly into groups of three, you add leading zeros to the left of the number to complete the group of three.
What is the octal equivalent of the binary number 1 1 0 1 0 1?
-The binary number 1 1 0 1 0 1 is converted to octal by grouping the digits into 1 1 0 1 0 1. Then, each group is converted to 1*4 + 1*2 + 0*1 = 6, and 1*4 + 0*2 + 1*1 = 5, resulting in the octal number 65.
Can you provide an example of converting a binary number with seven digits to octal?
-For a binary number with seven digits, like 1 0 0 1 1 1, you would group it as 100 111. Since 100 is less than three digits, you add two zeros to the left to make it 000 111. Then, 000 converts to 0, and 111 converts to 7, resulting in the octal number 07.
What is the positional value of each digit in a binary group when converting to octal?
-In a binary group of three digits when converting to octal, the positional values from right to left are 1, 2, and 4.
How do you calculate the octal value of a binary group like 101?
-For the binary group 101, you calculate the octal value by multiplying each digit by its positional value and summing them up: 1*4 + 0*2 + 1*1 = 4 + 0 + 1 = 5.
What is the octal equivalent of the binary number 1 0 0 1 1 1?
-The binary number 1 0 0 1 1 1 is converted to octal by grouping the digits into 100 111. Then, 100 converts to 4 and 111 converts to 7, resulting in the octal number 47.
If a binary number has a group of three digits that is all zeros, what is its octal equivalent?
-A group of three binary digits that is all zeros (000) has an octal equivalent of 0.
What happens if the binary number has more than one group of three digits?
-If the binary number has more than one group of three digits, each group is converted to its octal equivalent separately, and then the results are concatenated to form the full octal number.
Can you provide a step-by-step guide on converting the binary number 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 to octal?
-To convert 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 to octal: 1. Group the digits into 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0. 2. Add a zero to the left to make it 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0. 3. Convert each group: 0*4 + 1*2 + 1*1 = 3, 1*4 + 1*2 + 0*1 = 6, and 1*4 + 1*2 + 0*1 = 6. 4. The octal number is 366.

📚 Converting Binary to Octal Numbers
This paragraph explains the process of converting binary numbers to their octal equivalents. It begins with an example of converting the binary number 1 1 0 1 0 1 to an octal number. The binary number is first grouped into sets of three digits, resulting in two groups: 101 and 110. Each digit within the groups is then multiplied by its positional value (4, 2, 1), and the products are summed up to get the octal digit. For the first group, 101, the calculation is 1*4 + 0*2 + 1*1 = 5, and for the second group, 110, it is 1*4 + 1*2 + 0*1 = 6. Combining these, the binary number 1 1 0 1 0 1 is converted to the octal number 65. The paragraph continues with another example, converting the binary number 1 0 0 1 1 1 to the octal number 47, demonstrating the process with a step-by-step explanation. The method involves grouping the binary digits into sets of three, calculating the value for each set, and then combining these values to form the octal number.
🔢 Advanced Binary to Octal Conversion
This paragraph extends the binary to octal conversion concept by addressing scenarios where the binary number does not neatly divide into groups of three. It provides an example with seven binary digits, which are first grouped into sets of three, with additional zeros added to complete the last group. The example given is the conversion of the binary number 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 to the octal number 176. The process involves grouping the digits into 111, 110, and 00, and then calculating the value for each group as 7, 6, and 0, respectively. The values are then combined to form the octal number 176. The paragraph also encourages the viewer to try another example with a binary number that has six digits, 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0, and to convert it to an octal number. The process is demonstrated with a step-by-step calculation, resulting in the octal number 332. The paragraph concludes by emphasizing the simplicity of the method for converting binary numbers to their octal equivalents.

Transcripts
in this video we're going to talk about
how to convert a binary number into an
octal number
so let's say if we have the number
1 1
0
1 zero one how can we convert that to an
octal number
so what do you think we need to do
so what we need to do is separate this
into
two numbers in groups of three
so the first group of three we have one
zero one and the second one is one one
zero
now the first number has the value of
one
the second number we need to multiply by
two and a third by four
so one times four is four
one times two is two
zero times one is zero
so all we're going to do is just add the
4 and the 2
and so that's going to give us
6.
here we only need to add the 4 and the 1
because
1 times 4 is 4 the 1 times 1 is one
and so this will add up to five
so our answer is going to be
sixty five
so that's how we can convert a binary
number to an octal number
now let's try another example
so let's say if we have the binary
number one zero zero
one one one
go ahead and convert it into an octal
number
so first let's separate it into groups
of three
so for the first group of three we have
one
zero zero
so everywhere there's a one we're going
to
use the number that's associated with it
so the binary number one zero zero
has the equivalent of being four
now let's do the same thing for this one
so the number is one one one
so because we have a one for each we're
gonna use the four
the two and the one four plus two plus
one is seven
so we're gonna read it this way our
answer is four seven or forty seven
so it's 47 in the octal system
which is
a base 8 system
now let's try a different example
so instead of having 6 binary numbers
what if we have 7 binary numbers
how can we convert this into
an octal number
so go ahead and try it
so once again we're gonna have we're
gonna separate it into groups of three
so here's the first group of three
and here is the second
now because we don't have enough numbers
to make another group of three we're
going to add two zeros so it's going to
be 0 0 1
and then in blue we have 1 1 1 and then
in red 1 1 0.
so let's start with this example so we
have four two one
and so
this will have a value of one
for the next one it's one one one
so we need to add up each number
we have a one associated with the four
the two and the one four plus two plus
one is seven
and for the next one
we have a one in front of
the four and in front of the two so
we're only going to add four plus two
which is
six
and so you can see the answer it's
176.
and so that's it for this problem
now for the sake of practice let's do
one more example
so let's say we have the binary number
one one
zero one
one zero
one zero
go ahead and convert it into an octal
number
feel free to pause the video
so the first group of three is 0
1 0
and the second group of 3 is 0
1 1
and then the last one is 1 1 but we're
going to add a 0 to it
so it's 0
1 1 and then 0 1 1
and 0 1 0. so let me just color code it
so you can see
which one matches
and so let's write the numbers four two
one
so everywhere there's a one add up that
number
so we're gonna add up one i mean two and
one so two plus one is three and here we
can do the same thing
here we only have a two
so our answer is three three two or 332
in the octal system
and so that's a very simple way in which
you can convert a binary number into an
octal number
you
