About Decimal to Hexadecimal Converter

The Decimal to Hexadecimal Converter is a tool that allows you to convert decimal numbers (base-10) to hexadecimal numbers (base-16). Decimal numbers use ten digits (0-9), while hexadecimal numbers use sixteen digits (0-9 and A-F).

This conversion is commonly used in computer science and programming, especially when working with memory addresses, color codes, and other low-level operations where hexadecimal representation is more compact and convenient.

How the conversion works:

To convert decimal to hexadecimal:

  1. Divide the decimal number by 16.
  2. Get the integer quotient for the next iteration.
  3. Get the remainder for the hexadecimal digit.
  4. Repeat the steps until the quotient becomes 0.
  5. The hexadecimal digits are read from bottom to top.

Example:

Decimal: 173 173 ÷ 16 = 10 remainder 13 (D) 10 ÷ 16 = 0 remainder 10 (A) Reading from bottom to top: AD

Decimal to Hexadecimal conversion table (for remainders):

0 = 0 4 = 4 8 = 8 12 = C 1 = 1 5 = 5 9 = 9 13 = D 2 = 2 6 = 6 10 = A 14 = E 3 = 3 7 = 7 11 = B 15 = F

This converter also supports the reverse operation, allowing you to convert hexadecimal numbers back to decimal.
