15FB hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 15FB 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 15FB from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 15FB by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 15FB by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 15FB by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 15FB by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

B × 16⁰ = 11
F × 16¹ = 240
5 × 16² = 1280
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:

11 + 240 + 1280 + 4096 = 5627

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.

5627 ÷ 2 = 2813 with 1 remainder
2813 ÷ 2 = 1406 with 1 remainder
1406 ÷ 2 = 703 with 0 remainder
703 ÷ 2 = 351 with 1 remainder
351 ÷ 2 = 175 with 1 remainder
175 ÷ 2 = 87 with 1 remainder
87 ÷ 2 = 43 with 1 remainder
43 ÷ 2 = 21 with 1 remainder
21 ÷ 2 = 10 with 1 remainder
10 ÷ 2 = 5 with 0 remainder
5 ÷ 2 = 2 with 1 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 15FB hexadecimal to binary:

15FB hexadecimal = 1010111111011 binary
