AF08 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number AF08 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 AF08 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in AF08 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in AF08 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in AF08 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in AF08 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

8 × 16⁰ = 8
0 × 16¹ = 0
F × 16² = 3840
A × 16³ = 40960

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:

8 + 0 + 3840 + 40960 = 44808

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.

44808 ÷ 2 = 22404 with 0 remainder
22404 ÷ 2 = 11202 with 0 remainder
11202 ÷ 2 = 5601 with 0 remainder
5601 ÷ 2 = 2800 with 1 remainder
2800 ÷ 2 = 1400 with 0 remainder
1400 ÷ 2 = 700 with 0 remainder
700 ÷ 2 = 350 with 0 remainder
350 ÷ 2 = 175 with 0 remainder
175 ÷ 2 = 87 with 1 remainder
87 ÷ 2 = 43 with 1 remainder
43 ÷ 2 = 21 with 1 remainder
21 ÷ 2 = 10 with 1 remainder
10 ÷ 2 = 5 with 0 remainder
5 ÷ 2 = 2 with 1 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 AF08 hexadecimal to binary:

AF08 hexadecimal = 1010111100001000 binary
