  • Your all very welcome and thank you very much for the feedback. I'm glad to help.

  • Anderzom, I'm not really sure if I understand your question. But if you are trying to perform the division on a calculator to convert a decimal number to an Octal your answer will not come out the same as the answer you would have gotten if you had performed the division on paper. I hope that helps.

  • can you please tell me how to figure out the reminder ?

  • @7ejazy To determine the remainder you will have to perform the division on paper, not with a calculator. The calculator will carry the division all the way out and screw up the answer. Try it on paper and you'll see the difference.

  • @7ejazy you do the whole number separate to the decimal part e.g 98/8 =12.25 so 8 x .25= 2 so remainder is 2 12/8=1.5 .5x8=4 so remainder is 4 etc,
