Abstract

In digital technology designs and digital machine operations normally people use binary number system instead
of decimal number system. Digital devices work with digital technologies that use digital signals to
communicate between devices. This is the reason why decimal to binary conversion becomes so important. By
converting decimal into binary, it would be very easy to convert the binary number into octal or hexadecimal.
So far the division by base-2 has been used as a standard method to convert decimal numbers into binary
numbers. This research brings a different method for conducting decimal to binary conversion where this
conversion could be done using octal number system. Octal number system helps interpret decimal into octal
and the octal into binary. Literature studies, comparisons, analysis and evaluation have been made to derive the
solution for this alternative new method. This method is reliable and flexible to use for education, learning
process, even for programming.

Keywords: Binary conversion; decimal conversion; decimal to binary conversion; digital system; binary
system.
