Question 98

Computer Awareness Number representations Easy

Find the equivalent octal form of \( \mathrm{C1}_{16} \) .

(A) \( 301_{8} \)
(B) \( 193_{8} \)
(C) \( 201_{8} \)
(D) \( 302_{8} \)
✓ Correct Answer: Option A Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

Convert hex to binary: C = 1100 and 1 = 0001, so \(C1_{16} = 11000001_2\).

Group in threes from the right: 011 | 000 | 001, which is 3, 0, 1. So the octal number is \(301_8\).

Check: \(C1_{16} = 193\), and \(301_8 = 192 + 0 + 1 = 193\).

Answer: (A) \(301_8\)
