Solution

1. Break Down the Problem

To convert the binary number 10111101 10111101 to its octal equivalent, we need to group the binary digits in sets of three, starting from the right. If there are not enough digits on the left, we can add leading zeros.

2. Relevant Concepts

The binary system is base-2, and the octal system is base-8. Each octal digit corresponds to three binary digits (since 23=8 2^3 = 8 ). Therefore, we will convert the binary number directly to octal by converting each group of three binary digits to a single octal digit.

3. Analysis and Detail

  • The binary number: 10111101 10111101

  • Grouping the digits in sets of three (from right):

    1011110 1 011 110

    Adding leading zeros:

    001011110 001 011 110

  • Now, convert each group of three binary digits to its octal equivalent:

    • 001 001 in binary = 1 1 in octal
    • 011 011 in binary = 3 3 in octal
    • 110 110 in binary = 6 6 in octal

4. Verify and Summarize

Combining the octal digits obtained from the groups, we have:

1 3 6 1 \ 3 \ 6

Thus, the octal equivalent of the binary number 10111101 10111101 is 136 136 .

Final Answer

The octal equivalent of the binary number 10111101 10111101 is 136 136 .
