Find x = ? If (356)8 =(x) 16

To find x, follow these two steps:

Step 1: Convert Octal to Binary

Each octal digit represents 3 bits.

• 3 = 011

• 5 = 101

• 6 = 110

• Resulting Binary: 011101110

Step 2: Convert Binary to Hexadecimal

Group the binary bits into sets of 4, starting from the right (LSB).

• 0110 = 1110 (which is 14 in decimal, or E in Hex)

• 1110 (which is 14 in decimal, or E in Hex)

• The leading 0 is discarded.

• Resulting Hex: EE16
