CFDB hexadecimal to binary

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

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

B × 16⁰ = 11
D × 16¹ = 208
F × 16² = 3840
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 + 208 + 3840 + 49152 = 53211

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.

53211 ÷ 2 = 26605 with 1 remainder
26605 ÷ 2 = 13302 with 1 remainder
13302 ÷ 2 = 6651 with 0 remainder
6651 ÷ 2 = 3325 with 1 remainder
3325 ÷ 2 = 1662 with 1 remainder
1662 ÷ 2 = 831 with 0 remainder
831 ÷ 2 = 415 with 1 remainder
415 ÷ 2 = 207 with 1 remainder
207 ÷ 2 = 103 with 1 remainder
103 ÷ 2 = 51 with 1 remainder
51 ÷ 2 = 25 with 1 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 CFDB hexadecimal to binary:

CFDB hexadecimal = 1100111111011011 binary
