Step By Step Hexadecimal To Octal Converter

Steps to convert hexadecimal number to binary

Hexadecimal to octal number conversion include two major steps using shortcut method. In this process first we will find the equivalent binary number from hexadecimal number by pairing each hexadecimal digit to the binary four digits. In second step these binary 3 digits will be grouped to map from the octal table.

Another famous method that can be used is first convert hexadecimal to decimal Hexa to Dec. and then the obtained decimal will be converted into octal Dec to Oct.

Here is the series of steps for conversion.

1. First of all we are required valid integer or fractional number in hexadecimal form.
2. If we are using direct method then we will convert each hexadecimal digit in binary form.
3. In second step the binary form is again paired in the group of THREE binary digits.
4. Each group of these binary digits will represent on octal digit.
5. This process will be repeated for conversion of fractional part too.

Octal and hexadecimal are both short form of binary number systems. But in some cases these are required to convert vice versa.

Example

How to convert fractional hexadecimal into Octal numbers

Fractional hexadecimal contain the decimal point digits after the dot operator. These numbers can also be converted into octal number system using shortcut as well as using intermediate number system. This intermediate number system is decimal number system.
