3C1D hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 3C1D 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 3C1D from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 3C1D by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 3C1D by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 3C1D by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 3C1D by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

D × 16⁰ = 13
1 × 16¹ = 16
C × 16² = 3072
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:

13 + 16 + 3072 + 12288 = 15389

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.

15389 ÷ 2 = 7694 with 1 remainder
7694 ÷ 2 = 3847 with 0 remainder
3847 ÷ 2 = 1923 with 1 remainder
1923 ÷ 2 = 961 with 1 remainder
961 ÷ 2 = 480 with 1 remainder
480 ÷ 2 = 240 with 0 remainder
240 ÷ 2 = 120 with 0 remainder
120 ÷ 2 = 60 with 0 remainder
60 ÷ 2 = 30 with 0 remainder
30 ÷ 2 = 15 with 0 remainder
15 ÷ 2 = 7 with 1 remainder
7 ÷ 2 = 3 with 1 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 3C1D hexadecimal to binary:

3C1D hexadecimal = 11110000011101 binary
