539D hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 539D 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 539D from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 539D by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 539D by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 539D by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 539D by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

D × 16⁰ = 13
9 × 16¹ = 144
3 × 16² = 768
5 × 16³ = 20480

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 + 144 + 768 + 20480 = 21405

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.

21405 ÷ 2 = 10702 with 1 remainder
10702 ÷ 2 = 5351 with 0 remainder
5351 ÷ 2 = 2675 with 1 remainder
2675 ÷ 2 = 1337 with 1 remainder
1337 ÷ 2 = 668 with 1 remainder
668 ÷ 2 = 334 with 0 remainder
334 ÷ 2 = 167 with 0 remainder
167 ÷ 2 = 83 with 1 remainder
83 ÷ 2 = 41 with 1 remainder
41 ÷ 2 = 20 with 1 remainder
20 ÷ 2 = 10 with 0 remainder
10 ÷ 2 = 5 with 0 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 539D hexadecimal to binary:

539D hexadecimal = 101001110011101 binary
