Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number DFF4 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 DFF4 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.
Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in DFF4 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in DFF4 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in DFF4 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in DFF4 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.
4 × 16⁰ = 4
F × 16¹ = 240
F × 16² = 3840
D × 16³ = 53248
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:
4 + 240 + 3840 + 53248 = 57332
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.
57332 ÷ 2 = 28666 with 0 remainder
28666 ÷ 2 = 14333 with 0 remainder
14333 ÷ 2 = 7166 with 1 remainder
7166 ÷ 2 = 3583 with 0 remainder
3583 ÷ 2 = 1791 with 1 remainder
1791 ÷ 2 = 895 with 1 remainder
895 ÷ 2 = 447 with 1 remainder
447 ÷ 2 = 223 with 1 remainder
223 ÷ 2 = 111 with 1 remainder
111 ÷ 2 = 55 with 1 remainder
55 ÷ 2 = 27 with 1 remainder
27 ÷ 2 = 13 with 1 remainder
13 ÷ 2 = 6 with 1 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 DFF4 hexadecimal to binary:
DFF4 hexadecimal = 1101111111110100 binary
