FFF5 hexadecimal to binary

Here we will show you how to convert the hexadecimal number FFF5 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 FFF5 from hexadecimal to binary are explained below.

Step 1)
Multiply the last digit in FFF5 by 16⁰, multiply the second to last digit in FFF5 by 16¹, multiply the third to last digit in FFF5 by 16², multiply the fourth to last digit in FFF5 by 16³, and so on, until all the digits are used.

5 × 16⁰ = 5
F × 16¹ = 240
F × 16² = 3840
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:

5 + 240 + 3840 + 61440 = 65525

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.

65525 ÷ 2 = 32762 with 1 remainder
32762 ÷ 2 = 16381 with 0 remainder
16381 ÷ 2 = 8190 with 1 remainder
8190 ÷ 2 = 4095 with 0 remainder
4095 ÷ 2 = 2047 with 1 remainder
2047 ÷ 2 = 1023 with 1 remainder
1023 ÷ 2 = 511 with 1 remainder
511 ÷ 2 = 255 with 1 remainder
255 ÷ 2 = 127 with 1 remainder
127 ÷ 2 = 63 with 1 remainder
63 ÷ 2 = 31 with 1 remainder
31 ÷ 2 = 15 with 1 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 FFF5 hexadecimal to binary:

FFF5 hexadecimal = 1111111111110101 binary
