First, convert AB1¹⁶ into decimal, by using above steps:
= AB1¹⁶
= A × 162B × 1611 × 160
= 273710
Now, we have to convert 273710 to octal
2737 / 8 = 342 with remainder 1
342 / 8 = 42 with remainder 6
42 / 8 = 5 with remainder 2
5 / 8 = 0 with remainder 5
Then just write down the remainders in the reverse order to get the answer, The hexadecimal number AB1 converted to octal is therefore is equal to 5261

(2b)
Decimal equivalent of “1” = 1 × 3^1 = 3
Decimal equivalent of “1” = 1 × 3^2 = 9
Decimal equivalent of “0” = 0 × 3^3 = 0
Decimal equivalent of “1” = 1 × 3^4 = 81
Decimal equivalent of “1” = 1 × 3^5 = 243
Decimal equivalent of “110111” = 243810931
110111 = 337
Now we will convert the fractional part 0.101 to decimal form (Don’t forget that we start from tenths palce to so on..):
Decimal equivalent of “1” = 1 × 3^-1 = 0.33333333333333
Decimal equivalent of “0” = 0 × 3^-2 = 0
Decimal equivalent of “1” = 1 × 3^-3 = 0.037037037037037
Decimal equivalent of “0.101” = 0.3333333333333300.037037037037037
0.101 = 0.37037037037037
Here is the final answer, The ternary number 110111.101 converted to decimal is therefore equal to:
= 110111.1013
= 33710 + 0.3703703703703710
= 337.3703703703703710

(2c)

First, convert 5078 into decimal, by using above steps:
= 5078
= 5 × 820 × 817 × 80
= 32710
Now, we have to convert 32710 to binary
327 / 2 = 163 with remainder 1
163 / 2 = 81 with remainder 1
81 / 2 = 40 with remainder 1
40 / 2 = 20 with remainder 0
20 / 2 = 10 with remainder 0
10 / 2 = 5 with remainder 0
5 / 2 = 2 with remainder 1
2 / 2 = 1 with remainder 0
1 / 2 = 0 with remainder 1
101000111²
