Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 115C to a binary number. First note that the hexadecimal number system has sixteen different digits (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F) and the binary number system has only two different digits (0 and 1).
The four steps used to convert 115C from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.
Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 115C by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 115C by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 115C by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 115C by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.
C × 16⁰ = 12
5 × 16¹ = 80
1 × 16² = 256
1 × 16³ = 4096
Remember that the hexadecimal number system has sixteen different digits, so when doing the above calculation, we use the following values if applicable: A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, and F=15.
Step 2)
Next, we add up all the products we got from Step 1, like this:
12 + 80 + 256 + 4096 = 4444
Step 3)
Now we divide the sum from Step 2 by 2. Put the remainder aside. Then divide the whole part by 2 again, and put the remainder aside again. Keep doing this until the whole part is 0.
4444 ÷ 2 = 2222 with 0 remainder
2222 ÷ 2 = 1111 with 0 remainder
1111 ÷ 2 = 555 with 1 remainder
555 ÷ 2 = 277 with 1 remainder
277 ÷ 2 = 138 with 1 remainder
138 ÷ 2 = 69 with 0 remainder
69 ÷ 2 = 34 with 1 remainder
34 ÷ 2 = 17 with 0 remainder
17 ÷ 2 = 8 with 1 remainder
8 ÷ 2 = 4 with 0 remainder
4 ÷ 2 = 2 with 0 remainder
2 ÷ 2 = 1 with 0 remainder
1 ÷ 2 = 0 with 1 remainder
Step 4)
In the final step, we take the remainders from Step 3 and put them together in reverse order to get our answer to 115C hexadecimal to binary:
115C hexadecimal = 1000101011100 binary
