Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number F5B2 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 F5B2 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.
Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in F5B2 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in F5B2 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in F5B2 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in F5B2 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.
2 × 16⁰ = 2
B × 16¹ = 176
5 × 16² = 1280
F × 16³ = 61440
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:
2 + 176 + 1280 + 61440 = 62898
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.
62898 ÷ 2 = 31449 with 0 remainder
31449 ÷ 2 = 15724 with 1 remainder
15724 ÷ 2 = 7862 with 0 remainder
7862 ÷ 2 = 3931 with 0 remainder
3931 ÷ 2 = 1965 with 1 remainder
1965 ÷ 2 = 982 with 1 remainder
982 ÷ 2 = 491 with 0 remainder
491 ÷ 2 = 245 with 1 remainder
245 ÷ 2 = 122 with 1 remainder
122 ÷ 2 = 61 with 0 remainder
61 ÷ 2 = 30 with 1 remainder
30 ÷ 2 = 15 with 0 remainder
15 ÷ 2 = 7 with 1 remainder
7 ÷ 2 = 3 with 1 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 F5B2 hexadecimal to binary:
F5B2 hexadecimal = 1111010110110010 binary
