23E9 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 23E9 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 23E9 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 23E9 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 23E9 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 23E9 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 23E9 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

9 × 16⁰ = 9
E × 16¹ = 224
3 × 16² = 768
2 × 16³ = 8192

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:

9 + 224 + 768 + 8192 = 9193

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.

9193 ÷ 2 = 4596 with 1 remainder
4596 ÷ 2 = 2298 with 0 remainder
2298 ÷ 2 = 1149 with 0 remainder
1149 ÷ 2 = 574 with 1 remainder
574 ÷ 2 = 287 with 0 remainder
287 ÷ 2 = 143 with 1 remainder
143 ÷ 2 = 71 with 1 remainder
71 ÷ 2 = 35 with 1 remainder
35 ÷ 2 = 17 with 1 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 23E9 hexadecimal to binary:

23E9 hexadecimal = 10001111101001 binary
