F42 Hex in Octal

Converting a hexadecimal number to octal without a calculator involves first converting the hexadecimal number to binary, then grouping the binary digits into groups of three, and finally converting each group to its octal equivalent. Here's a step-by-step guide for hexadecimal numberF42:

F16 = 11112

416 = 01002

216 = 00102

Group the binary digits into groups of three, starting from the right. If the last group has fewer than three digits, pad it with zeros on the left.

Binary: 111 101 000 010

With Zeros: 111 101 000 010

Convert each group of binary digits to its octal equivalent:

1112 = 78

1012 = 58

0002 = 08

0102 = 28
