8F84 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number 8F84 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 8F84 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in 8F84 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in 8F84 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in 8F84 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in 8F84 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

4 × 16⁰ = 4
8 × 16¹ = 128
F × 16² = 3840
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 + 128 + 3840 + 32768 = 36740

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.

36740 ÷ 2 = 18370 with 0 remainder
18370 ÷ 2 = 9185 with 0 remainder
9185 ÷ 2 = 4592 with 1 remainder
4592 ÷ 2 = 2296 with 0 remainder
2296 ÷ 2 = 1148 with 0 remainder
1148 ÷ 2 = 574 with 0 remainder
574 ÷ 2 = 287 with 0 remainder
287 ÷ 2 = 143 with 1 remainder
143 ÷ 2 = 71 with 1 remainder
71 ÷ 2 = 35 with 1 remainder
35 ÷ 2 = 17 with 1 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 8F84 hexadecimal to binary:

8F84 hexadecimal = 1000111110000100 binary
