How to Convert Decimal to Hexadecimal

To convert a decimal number to hexadecimal, you can follow a simple process. Here's how you can do it:

Conversion Steps:

  1. Start with your decimal number. For example, let's use the decimal number 255.
  2. Divide the decimal number by 16 (the base of the hexadecimal system) and note down the quotient and remainder.
    • 255 divided by 16 equals 15 with a remainder of 15 (255 ÷ 16 = 15 remainder 15).
  3. Repeat the division process with the quotient until the quotient becomes zero.
    • 15 divided by 16 equals 0 with a remainder of 15 (15 ÷ 16 = 0 remainder 15).
  4. Write down the remainders from bottom to top, converting them to hexadecimal digits if they are greater than 9. In the hexadecimal system, 10 is represented as "A," 11 as "B," and so on.
    • The remainders are 15 and 15, which are "F" in hexadecimal notation.
  5. Concatenate the hexadecimal digits to form the complete hexadecimal representation.
    • The hexadecimal digits "FF" represent the decimal number 255.

That's it! You've successfully converted a decimal number to hexadecimal.
