HOw to calculate 72 octal divide by 2 octal????HELP!!!!!!?

Answer 1

72 base 8 = 58 base 10
2 base 8 = 2 base 10
58 / 2 = 29 base 10 = 35 base 8

Answer 2

You could convert the numbers to decimal and then divide and convert back to octal

72 base 8 = 58 base 10

divide by 2 is 29 base 10 which is

35 base 8

You can also perform long division in octal, for example 72 divided by 2, the first digit would be 3 with a 1 remainder to give 12 (base 8) divided by 2 which is 5, so you also get 35 that way too.
