Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number CA7 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 CA7 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.
Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in CA7 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in CA7 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in CA7 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in CA7 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.
7 × 16⁰ = 7
A × 16¹ = 160
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:
7 + 160 + 3072 = 3239
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.
3239 ÷ 2 = 1619 with 1 remainder
1619 ÷ 2 = 809 with 1 remainder
809 ÷ 2 = 404 with 1 remainder
404 ÷ 2 = 202 with 0 remainder
202 ÷ 2 = 101 with 0 remainder
101 ÷ 2 = 50 with 1 remainder
50 ÷ 2 = 25 with 0 remainder
25 ÷ 2 = 12 with 1 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 CA7 hexadecimal to binary:
CA7 hexadecimal = 110010100111 binary
