"100" is a number in Decimal Number System. What will be its representation in Octal Number System ?

  • A.100
  • B.144
  • C.414
  • D.441

Answer: B

Decimal 100 is 144 in octal.

Divide repeatedly by 8 and read the remainders from the bottom up:

\[ \begin{aligned} 100 \div 8 &= 12 \text{ remainder } 4 \\ 12 \div 8 &= 1 \text{ remainder } 4 \\ 1 \div 8 &= 0 \text{ remainder } 1 \end{aligned} \]

Check: \(1 \times 64 + 4 \times 8 + 4 = 100\). The digits 414 and 441 are rearrangements of the right digits, and 100 would be decimal 64.
