what is the hexadecimal representation of this binary number
01100011110
Answers
To convert binary to hex, starting from the low-order bit (working right-to-left), split the binary digits into groups of four-bit nybbles (half-a-byte) and then translate each nybble to its hexadecimal equivalent. This works because there are only 16 possible nybbles and we can represent each with a single hex digit:
0000 = 0
0001 = 1
0010 = 2
0011 = 3
0100 = 4
0101 = 5
0110 = 6
0111 = 7
1000 = 8
1001 = 9
1010 = a
1011 = b
1100 = c
1101 = d
1110 = e
1111 = f
Thus, given the binary value 01100011110, we find there are 3 four-bit nybbles:
011 0001 1110
in this case, the high-order nybble has only 3 bits, but we always assume leading zeroes for any missing bits.
Translating these three nybbles to hexadecimal we get:
0011 = 3 0001 = 1 1110 = e
Thus 01100011110 binary is 31e hexadecimal, which is often written 0x31e.
Converting to octal is similar except we use groups of 3 bits with the following conversions:
000 = 0 001 = 1 010 = 2 011 = 3 100 = 4 101 = 5 110 = 6 111 = 7
Thus 01100011110 splits into 01 100 011 110 with the following translation:
001 = 1
100 = 4
011 = 3
110 = 6
Thus 01100011110 binary is 1436 octal which is often written 01436.
Binary to hexadecimal?
Hex on left, Binary on right 0 = 0000 1 = 0001 2 = 0010 3 = 0011 4 = 0100 5 = 0101 6 = 0110 7 = 0111 8 = 1000 9 = 1001 A = 1010 B = 1011 C = 1100 D = 1101 E = 1110 F = 1111
Answer:
Hexadecimal representation of this binary number 01100011110 = (31E)₁₆
Explanation:
Binary to Hexadecimal Conversion
A binary number can easily be converted into a hexadecimal number.
All you need to do is to make four-bit pairs of the binary number from the right to the left and then convert them into a hexadecimal number system.
The given binary number is: 0110001110
Let's break this number is four-bit pairs: 0011 0001 1110
I have added a zero in the beginning so that each group can have four bits.
Now let's convert:
0011 => This is equivalent to 3
0001 => This is equivalent to 1
1110 => This is equivalent to 14 but there is no 14 in hexadecimal. We represent it with E.
So our hexadecimal nubmer is 31E
