17CD hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 17CD 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 17CD from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 17CD by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 17CD by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 17CD by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 17CD by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

D × 16⁰ = 13
C × 16¹ = 192
7 × 16² = 1792
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:

13 + 192 + 1792 + 4096 = 6093

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.

6093 ÷ 2 = 3046 with 1 remainder
3046 ÷ 2 = 1523 with 0 remainder
1523 ÷ 2 = 761 with 1 remainder
761 ÷ 2 = 380 with 1 remainder
380 ÷ 2 = 190 with 0 remainder
190 ÷ 2 = 95 with 0 remainder
95 ÷ 2 = 47 with 1 remainder
47 ÷ 2 = 23 with 1 remainder
23 ÷ 2 = 11 with 1 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 17CD hexadecimal to binary:

17CD hexadecimal = 1011111001101 binary
