CAC hexadecimal to binary

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

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

C × 16⁰ = 12
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:

12 + 160 + 3072 = 3244

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.

3244 ÷ 2 = 1622 with 0 remainder
1622 ÷ 2 = 811 with 0 remainder
811 ÷ 2 = 405 with 1 remainder
405 ÷ 2 = 202 with 1 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 CAC hexadecimal to binary:

CAC hexadecimal = 110010101100 binary
