Convert 227 from decimal to hexadecimal

(base 16) notation:

Power Test

Raise our base of 16 to a power

Start at 0 and increasing by 1 until it is >= 227

160 = 1

161 = 16

162 = 256 <--- Stop: This is greater than 227

Since 256 is greater than 227, we use 1 power less as our starting point which equals 1

Build hexadecimal notation

Work backwards from a power of 1

We start with a total sum of 0:


161 = 16

The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 227 is 14

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 14 * 16 = 224

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
0 + 224 = 224

Hexadecimal (10 - 15) are represented by an (A-F) where 14 translates to the letter E

This is <= 227, so we assign our outside coefficient of E for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 224

Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to E


160 = 1

The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 227 is 3

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 3 * 1 = 3

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
224 + 3 = 227

This = 227, so we assign our outside coefficient of 3 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 227

Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to E3


Final Answer

We are done. 227 converted from decimal to hexadecimal notation equals E316.
