Answer :

C) Letters and decimal digits.

• Hexadecimal number system. It can be used to represent fewer large numbers.
• This system has 16 characters or possible numeric values from 0 to 9 followed by 6 alphabetic characters (A, B, C, D, E and F).
• These characters are used to represent decimal values from 10 to 15 in single bits.
• Both decimal and hexadecimal numbers start the same way. 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., 9.
• When the decimal reaches 9, there are no more digits, so start another column from the left at 1 and reset the original column to 0 to get 10.
• Then keep counting 11, 12, 13 and so on until you get to 19, rearrange the right column again and add 1 to the left to get 20.
• Whenever a column runs out of numbers, it resets to 0 and moves to the left in the column, for example from 99 to 100 maximum, 799 to 800, etc.
