= 1 × 256 + 2 × 16 + 5 × 1 = 5 × 16 + 10 × 16 + 13 × 16 0
= 256 + 32 + 5 = 5 × 256 + 10 × 16 + 13 × 1
= 293 = 1280 + 160 + 13
= 1453
Therefore, (125) = (293) 10 Therefore, (5AD) = (1453)

DECIMAL TO BINARY NUMBER SYSTEM 16 10
To convert a decimal number to binary, follow these steps:
Step 1 Divide the given decimal number by 2 and note the remainder.
Step 2 Divide the quotient obtained from the previous step by 2 and note the new remainder.
Step 3 Repeat the steps until the quotient becomes less than 2.
Step 4 Write the remainders in reverse order, starting with the last remainder.
Example 1: Convert (13) to a binary number. Example 2: Convert (28) to a binary number.

Therefore, (13) = (1101) 2

Therefore, (28) = (11100) 2

DECIMAL TO OCTAL NUMBER SYSTEM
To convert a decimal number to octal, follow these steps:
Step 1 Divide the given decimal number by 8 and note the remainder.
Step 2 Divide the quotient obtained from the previous step by 8 and note the new remainder.
Step 3 Repeat the steps until the quotient becomes less than 8.
Step 4 Write the remainders in reverse order, starting with the last remainder.
Example 1: Convert (1023) to an octal number. Example 2: Convert (4320) to an octal number.
