1011101010101
group this in groups of 3 starting
at the right side
1 011 101 010 101
Use place multipliers for
each of the groups of 3
[ 2^2 , 2^1 , 2^0 ]
1 3 5 2 5
This is the value in base 8 ( octal )
-----------------------------
Prove it with easy example:
1000100
1 0 4 in octal
--------------
1*2^6 + 1*2^2 = 64 + 4
64+ 4 = 68
and
1*8^2 + 4 = 64 + 4
64 + 4 = 68
OK
