Hexadecimal Binary

1. The hexadecimal system is a base-16 numbering system that uses 16 distinct symbols (0-9 and A-F) to represent values. 2. Converting between binary, decimal, and hexadecimal involves grouping bits or digits in sets of four for hexadecimal, and converting each group to its hexadecimal equivalent. 3. For example, the binary number 1111000011112 converts to hexadecimal as F0F16 by grouping into four bits as 1111 0000 1111 and taking the hexadecimal value of each group.

HEXADECIMAL
SYSTEM
Learning Objectives

After this discussion, you must be able to:

1. Convert decimal to hexadecimal and vice


versa.
2. Convert binary to hexadecimal and vice
versa.
HEXADECIMAL SYSTEM

● This is base-16 system.


● There is an allowable digit, 0 through 9, and A through F
corresponding numbers 10 through 15. Although it may
be a bit confusing for beginners, it provides a very
convenient means of simplifying binary numbers. This
system is the most widely used by many programmers.
● Similar to octal system, conversion from binary to
hexadecimal is a matter of grouping bits. In this case, four
bits are grouped instead of three.
● To convert a binary number to hexadecimal, group the
binary digits into four bits (from the lsb to msb) and get
the equivalent in hexadecimal. 24 = (16), which the power
of 4 define the number of bit each group in hexadecimal
HEXADECIMAL SYSTEM

● Converting, for example, 1111000011112 to


hexadecimal is easy. Grouping the bits in four
produces
● 1111 0000 1111. 1111 is F, 0000 is 0, 1111 is F. Therefore,
the hex equivalent is F0F16.

• For converting a hexadecimal number to binary, the procedure is basically
the same.
• To convert to binary, get binary equivalent of each digit in the proper order.
2 is 102, 4 is 01002 and A is 10102.
• Always use 4 bits to represent each decimal digit.
• Therefore, 24A is 10 0100 10102.

Decimal to Hexadecimal Conversion

(1) Convert decimal to binary 409510 =?


409510 = 212 211 210 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20
4096 2048 1024 512 256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 12

OR
4095 / 2 = 2047 r 5 (1) 7 / 2 = 3 r 5 (1)

end
2047 / 2 = 1023 r 5 (1) 3 / 2 = 1 r 5 (1)
1023 / 2 = 511 r 5 (1) 1 / 2 = 1 r 5 (1) 1111111111112
511 / 2 = 255 r 5 (1)
start
255 / 2 = 127 r 5 (1)
Note: This method use successive division by dividing 2 of the
127 / 2 = 63 r 5 (1)
given decimal then every time you divide and there is remainder
63 / 2 = 31 r 5 (1) there is equivalent 1 in binary if there is no remainder is 0. It was
31 / 2 = 15 r 5 (1) written from the last digit to first to write in binary
15 / 2 = 7 r 5 (1)
Decimal to Hexadecimal Conversion

(2) Convert decimal to binary

Then, group the binary digits into 4 bits and take the hexadecimal equivalent of each
group separately.
