How to Convert Hexadecimal to Binary Number?
To convert a hexadecimal number into its equivalent binary number, follow the steps given here:
Step 1: Take given hexadecimal number
Step 2: Find the number of digits in the decimal
Step 3: If it has n digits, multiply each digit with 16n-1 where the digit is in the nth position
Step 4: Add the terms after multiplication
Step 5: The result is the decimal number equivalent to the given hexadecimal number. Now we have to
convert this decimal to binary number.
Step 6: Divide the decimal number with 2
Step 7: Note the remainder
Step 8: Do the above 2 steps for the quotient till the quotient is zero
Step 9: Write the remainders in the reverse order.
Step 10: The result is the required binary number.
Hence, from the above steps it is clear that how to convert any hexadecimal number into binary, i.e. first,
we need to convert hexadecimal to decimal number and then decimal to binary.
Hexa To Binary Examples
Question 1: Convert A2B16 to an equivalent binary number.
Solution: Given hexadecimal number = A2B16
First, convert the given hexadecimal to the equivalent decimal number.
A2B16 = (A × 162) + (2 × 161) + (B × 160)
= (A × 256) + (2 × 16) + (B × 1)
= (10 ×256) + 32 + 11
= 2560 + 43
= 2603(Decimal number)
Now we have to convert 260310 to binary
Hexadecimal to Binary
The binary number obtained is 1010001010112
Hence, A2B16 = 1010001010112
Question 2: Convert E16 to an equivalent binary number.
Solution: Given, a hexadecimal number is E.
First, convert the given hexadecimal to the equivalent decimal number.
E16 = E × 160
=E×1
=E
=14 (Decimal number)
Now we have to convert 1410 to binary number.
Converting hexadecimal to binary
The binary number obtained is 11102
Hence, E16 = 11102
Question 3: Convert 3016 to an equivalent binary number.
Solution: Given the hexadecimal number is 30
First, convert the given hexadecimal to the equivalent decimal number.
3016 = (3 × 161) + (0 × 160)
= 48 + 0
= 48(Decimal number)
Now we have to convert 4810 to binary.
Therefore,
hexa to binary conversion
The binary number is 1100002
Hence, 3016 = 1100002
