C50 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number C50 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 C50 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in C50 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in C50 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in C50 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in C50 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

0 × 16⁰ = 0
5 × 16¹ = 80
C × 16² = 3072

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 + 80 + 3072 = 3152

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.

3152 ÷ 2 = 1576 with 0 remainder
1576 ÷ 2 = 788 with 0 remainder
788 ÷ 2 = 394 with 0 remainder
394 ÷ 2 = 197 with 0 remainder
197 ÷ 2 = 98 with 1 remainder
98 ÷ 2 = 49 with 0 remainder
49 ÷ 2 = 24 with 1 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 C50 hexadecimal to binary:

C50 hexadecimal = 110001010000 binary
