AF37 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number AF37 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 AF37 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in AF37 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in AF37 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in AF37 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in AF37 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

7 × 16⁰ = 7
3 × 16¹ = 48
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:

7 + 48 + 3840 + 40960 = 44855

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.

44855 ÷ 2 = 22427 with 1 remainder
22427 ÷ 2 = 11213 with 1 remainder
11213 ÷ 2 = 5606 with 1 remainder
5606 ÷ 2 = 2803 with 0 remainder
2803 ÷ 2 = 1401 with 1 remainder
1401 ÷ 2 = 700 with 1 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 AF37 hexadecimal to binary:

AF37 hexadecimal = 1010111100110111 binary
