B797 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number B797 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 B797 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in B797 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in B797 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in B797 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in B797 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

7 × 16⁰ = 7
9 × 16¹ = 144
7 × 16² = 1792
B × 16³ = 45056

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 + 144 + 1792 + 45056 = 46999

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.

46999 ÷ 2 = 23499 with 1 remainder
23499 ÷ 2 = 11749 with 1 remainder
11749 ÷ 2 = 5874 with 1 remainder
5874 ÷ 2 = 2937 with 0 remainder
2937 ÷ 2 = 1468 with 1 remainder
1468 ÷ 2 = 734 with 0 remainder
734 ÷ 2 = 367 with 0 remainder
367 ÷ 2 = 183 with 1 remainder
183 ÷ 2 = 91 with 1 remainder
91 ÷ 2 = 45 with 1 remainder
45 ÷ 2 = 22 with 1 remainder
22 ÷ 2 = 11 with 0 remainder
11 ÷ 2 = 5 with 1 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 B797 hexadecimal to binary:

B797 hexadecimal = 1011011110010111 binary
