Decimal to Hexadecimal

To convert a decimal number to a hexadecimal number:

1.Divide the decimal number by 16. The remainder of this first division becomes the least significant (rightmost) digit of the hexadecimal value. If the remainder exceeds 9, convert the 2-digit remainder to its hexadecimal letter equivalent. Use this table for conversion.

15F

2.Divide the quotient from Step 1 by 16, and use the remainder of this next division as the next digit (to the left) of the hexadecimal value (converting 2-digit remainders as necessary). Continue to divide the quotients by 16 until the decimal number is exhausted. The remainder from the last division is the most significant (leftmost) digit of the hexadecimal value.

Example

Convert the decimal value 47632 to its hexadecimal equivalent. (In this example, the symbol “/” indicates division.)

Step	Division		Quotient	Remainder
1.	47632/16	=	2977	0
2.	2977/16	=	186	1
3.	186/16	=	11	10 = A
4.	11/16	=	0	11 = B

remainder = least significant (rightmost) digit

remainder = most significant (leftmost) digit

The result is:
