77DC hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 77DC 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 77DC from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 77DC by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 77DC by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 77DC by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 77DC by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

C × 16⁰ = 12
D × 16¹ = 208
7 × 16² = 1792
7 × 16³ = 28672

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:

12 + 208 + 1792 + 28672 = 30684

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.

30684 ÷ 2 = 15342 with 0 remainder
15342 ÷ 2 = 7671 with 0 remainder
7671 ÷ 2 = 3835 with 1 remainder
3835 ÷ 2 = 1917 with 1 remainder
1917 ÷ 2 = 958 with 1 remainder
958 ÷ 2 = 479 with 0 remainder
479 ÷ 2 = 239 with 1 remainder
239 ÷ 2 = 119 with 1 remainder
119 ÷ 2 = 59 with 1 remainder
59 ÷ 2 = 29 with 1 remainder
29 ÷ 2 = 14 with 1 remainder
14 ÷ 2 = 7 with 0 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 77DC hexadecimal to binary:

77DC hexadecimal = 111011111011100 binary
