8BF2 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 8BF2 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 8BF2 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 8BF2 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 8BF2 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 8BF2 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 8BF2 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

2 × 16⁰ = 2
F × 16¹ = 240
B × 16² = 2816
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:

2 + 240 + 2816 + 32768 = 35826

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.

35826 ÷ 2 = 17913 with 0 remainder
17913 ÷ 2 = 8956 with 1 remainder
8956 ÷ 2 = 4478 with 0 remainder
4478 ÷ 2 = 2239 with 0 remainder
2239 ÷ 2 = 1119 with 1 remainder
1119 ÷ 2 = 559 with 1 remainder
559 ÷ 2 = 279 with 1 remainder
279 ÷ 2 = 139 with 1 remainder
139 ÷ 2 = 69 with 1 remainder
69 ÷ 2 = 34 with 1 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 8BF2 hexadecimal to binary:

8BF2 hexadecimal = 1000101111110010 binary
