3147 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 3147 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 3147 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 3147 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 3147 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 3147 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 3147 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

7 × 16⁰ = 7
4 × 16¹ = 64
1 × 16² = 256
3 × 16³ = 12288

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:

7 + 64 + 256 + 12288 = 12615

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.

12615 ÷ 2 = 6307 with 1 remainder
6307 ÷ 2 = 3153 with 1 remainder
3153 ÷ 2 = 1576 with 1 remainder
1576 ÷ 2 = 788 with 0 remainder
788 ÷ 2 = 394 with 0 remainder
394 ÷ 2 = 197 with 0 remainder
197 ÷ 2 = 98 with 1 remainder
98 ÷ 2 = 49 with 0 remainder
49 ÷ 2 = 24 with 1 remainder
24 ÷ 2 = 12 with 0 remainder
12 ÷ 2 = 6 with 0 remainder
6 ÷ 2 = 3 with 0 remainder
3 ÷ 2 = 1 with 1 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 3147 hexadecimal to binary:

3147 hexadecimal = 11000101000111 binary
