Binary of 8 is "1000" and here by this command 3 bits of "1000" will be shifted to right. Hence Binary will be "0001" so your expressions answer will be "0001" i.e. 1

8 in binary is 1000 You're shifting it by 3 times After first shift 0100 After second shift 0010 After Third shift 0001 So you'll be left with 8>>3=1 To make it simple, every time you shift right your number gets divided by 2 and every time you shift left your number gets multiplied by 2.

first convert numerical value to binary value then arrange into bits and shift 3 bit on right then convert binary value to decimal value.

This is bitwise operator, forget about the numeric value, You will have to think in terms of sequence of bits, Just write down these two numbers in bits, and start moving the bits,

This operator shifts the first operand the specified number of bits to the right. Excess bits shifted off to the right are discarded. Copies of the leftmost bit are shifted in from the left
