The hexadecimal system (base-16) is used to represent values in a compact format, particularly in programming and computer science. It uses digits 0–9 and letters A–F. Converting decimal (base-10) to hexadecimal simplifies large numbers for easier readability and usage in low-level computing.

Conversion Method

Steps to Convert

  1. Divide the decimal number by 16 and record the remainder.
  2. Use the remainder to find the corresponding hexadecimal digit (0-9 for values 0-9, A-F for values 10-15).
  3. Divide the quotient by 16 and repeat until the quotient is 0.
  4. Write the remainders in reverse order to form the hexadecimal value.

Example

Convert 74510​ (decimal) to hexadecimal:

  • 745 ÷ 16 = 46 remainder 9.
  • 46 ÷ 16 = 2 remainder 14 (14 corresponds to E in hexadecimal).
  • 2 ÷ 16 = 0 remainder 2.
  • Write the remainders in reverse order: 2E916

Result: 74510 = 2E916
