54AD hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 54AD 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 54AD from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 54AD by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 54AD by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 54AD by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 54AD by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

D × 16⁰ = 13
A × 16¹ = 160
4 × 16² = 1024
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 + 160 + 1024 + 20480 = 21677

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.

21677 ÷ 2 = 10838 with 1 remainder
10838 ÷ 2 = 5419 with 0 remainder
5419 ÷ 2 = 2709 with 1 remainder
2709 ÷ 2 = 1354 with 1 remainder
1354 ÷ 2 = 677 with 0 remainder
677 ÷ 2 = 338 with 1 remainder
338 ÷ 2 = 169 with 0 remainder
169 ÷ 2 = 84 with 1 remainder
84 ÷ 2 = 42 with 0 remainder
42 ÷ 2 = 21 with 0 remainder
21 ÷ 2 = 10 with 1 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 54AD hexadecimal to binary:

54AD hexadecimal = 101010010101101 binary
