BB6F hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number BB6F 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 BB6F from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in BB6F by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in BB6F by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in BB6F by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in BB6F by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

F × 16⁰ = 15
6 × 16¹ = 96
B × 16² = 2816
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:

15 + 96 + 2816 + 45056 = 47983

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.

47983 ÷ 2 = 23991 with 1 remainder
23991 ÷ 2 = 11995 with 1 remainder
11995 ÷ 2 = 5997 with 1 remainder
5997 ÷ 2 = 2998 with 1 remainder
2998 ÷ 2 = 1499 with 0 remainder
1499 ÷ 2 = 749 with 1 remainder
749 ÷ 2 = 374 with 1 remainder
374 ÷ 2 = 187 with 0 remainder
187 ÷ 2 = 93 with 1 remainder
93 ÷ 2 = 46 with 1 remainder
46 ÷ 2 = 23 with 0 remainder
23 ÷ 2 = 11 with 1 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 BB6F hexadecimal to binary:

BB6F hexadecimal = 1011101101101111 binary
