88AD hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 88AD 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 88AD from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 88AD by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 88AD by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 88AD by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 88AD by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

D × 16⁰ = 13
A × 16¹ = 160
8 × 16² = 2048
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:

13 + 160 + 2048 + 32768 = 34989

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.

34989 ÷ 2 = 17494 with 1 remainder
17494 ÷ 2 = 8747 with 0 remainder
8747 ÷ 2 = 4373 with 1 remainder
4373 ÷ 2 = 2186 with 1 remainder
2186 ÷ 2 = 1093 with 0 remainder
1093 ÷ 2 = 546 with 1 remainder
546 ÷ 2 = 273 with 0 remainder
273 ÷ 2 = 136 with 1 remainder
136 ÷ 2 = 68 with 0 remainder
68 ÷ 2 = 34 with 0 remainder
34 ÷ 2 = 17 with 0 remainder
17 ÷ 2 = 8 with 1 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 88AD hexadecimal to binary:

88AD hexadecimal = 1000100010101101 binary
