NUMBER SYSTEM
LESSON OBJECTIVES:
- The hexadecimal system uses sixteen digits: 0–9 and A–F (where A
represents 10, B represents 11, and so on).
- It is commonly used in computer programming and memory addressing.
THE NUMBER SYSTEM PLAYS A CRUCIAL ROLE IN
MATHEMATICS AND OUR DAILY LIVES.
1. REPRESENTATION OF QUANTITIES
3. TYPES OF NUMBERS
Base and digits: The base of the octal system is 8. It uses the digits
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. Octal Binary Octal Binary
Digit Eq. Digit Eq.
0 000 3 011
1 001 4 100
Representation: 2 010 5 101
- Octal numbers are usually represented by binary numbers when
grouped in pairs of three.
-For example, the octal number 128 is expressed as 0010102 in
binary, where 1 is equivalent to 001 and 2 is equivalent to 010.
CONVERSION:
a) Discard it
b) add it to the next division
c) use it to form the octal number
d) multiply it by 8
