There are two ways:
i. We can convert the given number into decimal then to binary:
(7*8^1) + (6*8^0) = (56 + 6) = 62(which is in decimal).
2|62
2|31 - 0
2|15 - 1
2|7 - 1
2|3 - 1
2|1 - 1
2|0 - 1
Answer is ==> 111110.
ii. Directly convert to binary by following method which is very simple:
76:- for 7-->111 and for 6-->110.
By combining: 76 = 111110.
