5. Converting (11011.01)2 to base 8 yields which of the following results?

  1. 33.2
  2. 63.2
  3. 63.1
  4. 33.1
  5. 63.01

1 is CORRECT. Adding a front and back end zero to the number (11011.01)2 results in (011011.010)2. Grouping the bits in groups of 3 about the radix point, interpret the number as follows: 011 = 3; 011 = 3; Dot 010 = 2: 33.2 (2^k conversion method). Here is how you can visualize it in rows:
