8474 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 8474 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 8474 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 8474 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 8474 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 8474 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 8474 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

4 × 16⁰ = 4
7 × 16¹ = 112
4 × 16² = 1024
8 × 16³ = 32768

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:

4 + 112 + 1024 + 32768 = 33908

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.

33908 ÷ 2 = 16954 with 0 remainder
16954 ÷ 2 = 8477 with 0 remainder
8477 ÷ 2 = 4238 with 1 remainder
4238 ÷ 2 = 2119 with 0 remainder
2119 ÷ 2 = 1059 with 1 remainder
1059 ÷ 2 = 529 with 1 remainder
529 ÷ 2 = 264 with 1 remainder
264 ÷ 2 = 132 with 0 remainder
132 ÷ 2 = 66 with 0 remainder
66 ÷ 2 = 33 with 0 remainder
33 ÷ 2 = 16 with 1 remainder
16 ÷ 2 = 8 with 0 remainder
8 ÷ 2 = 4 with 0 remainder
4 ÷ 2 = 2 with 0 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 8474 hexadecimal to binary:

8474 hexadecimal = 1000010001110100 binary
