Convert 293 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 >= 293
160 = 1
161 = 16
162 = 256
163 = 4096 <--- Stop: This is greater than 293
Since 4096 is greater than 293, we use 1 power less as our starting point which equals 2
Build hexadecimal notation
Work backwards from a power of 2
We start with a total sum of 0:
162 = 256
The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 293 is 1
Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 256 = 256
Add our new value to our running total, we get:
0 + 256 = 256
This is <= 293, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.
Our new sum becomes 256
Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to 1
161 = 16
The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 293 is 2
Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 2 * 16 = 32
Add our new value to our running total, we get:
256 + 32 = 288
This is <= 293, so we assign our outside coefficient of 2 for this digit.
Our new sum becomes 288
Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to 12
160 = 1
The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 293 is 5
Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 5 * 1 = 5
Add our new value to our running total, we get:
288 + 5 = 293
This = 293, so we assign our outside coefficient of 5 for this digit.
Our new sum becomes 293
Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to 125
Final Answer
We are done. 293 converted from decimal to hexadecimal notation equals 12516.Take the Quiz
