C3CB hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number C3CB 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 C3CB from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in C3CB by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in C3CB by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in C3CB by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in C3CB by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

B × 16⁰ = 11
C × 16¹ = 192
3 × 16² = 768
C × 16³ = 49152

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:

11 + 192 + 768 + 49152 = 50123

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.

50123 ÷ 2 = 25061 with 1 remainder
25061 ÷ 2 = 12530 with 1 remainder
12530 ÷ 2 = 6265 with 0 remainder
6265 ÷ 2 = 3132 with 1 remainder
3132 ÷ 2 = 1566 with 0 remainder
1566 ÷ 2 = 783 with 0 remainder
783 ÷ 2 = 391 with 1 remainder
391 ÷ 2 = 195 with 1 remainder
195 ÷ 2 = 97 with 1 remainder
97 ÷ 2 = 48 with 1 remainder
48 ÷ 2 = 24 with 0 remainder
24 ÷ 2 = 12 with 0 remainder
12 ÷ 2 = 6 with 0 remainder
6 ÷ 2 = 3 with 0 remainder
3 ÷ 2 = 1 with 1 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 C3CB hexadecimal to binary:

C3CB hexadecimal = 1100001111001011 binary
