BC24 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number BC24 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 BC24 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in BC24 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in BC24 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in BC24 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in BC24 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

4 × 16⁰ = 4
2 × 16¹ = 32
C × 16² = 3072
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:

4 + 32 + 3072 + 45056 = 48164

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.

48164 ÷ 2 = 24082 with 0 remainder
24082 ÷ 2 = 12041 with 0 remainder
12041 ÷ 2 = 6020 with 1 remainder
6020 ÷ 2 = 3010 with 0 remainder
3010 ÷ 2 = 1505 with 0 remainder
1505 ÷ 2 = 752 with 1 remainder
752 ÷ 2 = 376 with 0 remainder
376 ÷ 2 = 188 with 0 remainder
188 ÷ 2 = 94 with 0 remainder
94 ÷ 2 = 47 with 0 remainder
47 ÷ 2 = 23 with 1 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 BC24 hexadecimal to binary:

BC24 hexadecimal = 1011110000100100 binary
