BBB0 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number BBB0 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 BBB0 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in BBB0 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in BBB0 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in BBB0 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in BBB0 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

0 × 16⁰ = 0
B × 16¹ = 176
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:

0 + 176 + 2816 + 45056 = 48048

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.

48048 ÷ 2 = 24024 with 0 remainder
24024 ÷ 2 = 12012 with 0 remainder
12012 ÷ 2 = 6006 with 0 remainder
6006 ÷ 2 = 3003 with 0 remainder
3003 ÷ 2 = 1501 with 1 remainder
1501 ÷ 2 = 750 with 1 remainder
750 ÷ 2 = 375 with 0 remainder
375 ÷ 2 = 187 with 1 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 BBB0 hexadecimal to binary:

BBB0 hexadecimal = 1011101110110000 binary
