Binary (base-2) consists of only two digits: 0 and 1. Octal (base-8) uses eight digits: 0 to 7. Converting binary to octal is useful for simplifying binary representation in computing and programming while preserving its structure.
Conversion Method: Binary to Octal

Steps to Convert

1. Group the binary number into groups of three bits starting from the right (add leading zeros if necessary).
2. Convert each group of three bits into its corresponding octal value using a reference table.

1. Group into threes: 000 110 010 101 (add leading zeros).
2. Convert each group:
   • 000 = 0
   • 110 = 6
   • 010 = 2
   • 101 = 5
3. Combine the results: 0625₈​.
