160A hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 160A 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 160A from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

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

A × 16⁰ = 10
0 × 16¹ = 0
6 × 16² = 1536
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:

10 + 0 + 1536 + 4096 = 5642

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.

5642 ÷ 2 = 2821 with 0 remainder
2821 ÷ 2 = 1410 with 1 remainder
1410 ÷ 2 = 705 with 0 remainder
705 ÷ 2 = 352 with 1 remainder
352 ÷ 2 = 176 with 0 remainder
176 ÷ 2 = 88 with 0 remainder
88 ÷ 2 = 44 with 0 remainder
44 ÷ 2 = 22 with 0 remainder
22 ÷ 2 = 11 with 0 remainder
11 ÷ 2 = 5 with 1 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 160A hexadecimal to binary:

160A hexadecimal = 1011000001010 binary
