5E4A hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 5E4A 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 5E4A from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 5E4A by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 5E4A by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 5E4A by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 5E4A by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

A × 16⁰ = 10
4 × 16¹ = 64
E × 16² = 3584
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:

10 + 64 + 3584 + 20480 = 24138

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.

24138 ÷ 2 = 12069 with 0 remainder
12069 ÷ 2 = 6034 with 1 remainder
6034 ÷ 2 = 3017 with 0 remainder
3017 ÷ 2 = 1508 with 1 remainder
1508 ÷ 2 = 754 with 0 remainder
754 ÷ 2 = 377 with 0 remainder
377 ÷ 2 = 188 with 1 remainder
188 ÷ 2 = 94 with 0 remainder
94 ÷ 2 = 47 with 0 remainder
47 ÷ 2 = 23 with 1 remainder
23 ÷ 2 = 11 with 1 remainder
11 ÷ 2 = 5 with 1 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 5E4A hexadecimal to binary:

5E4A hexadecimal = 101111001001010 binary
