About Hexadecimal to Decimal Converter

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

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 hexadecimal to decimal:

  1. Multiply each digit by the power of 16 corresponding to its position.
  2. Sum all the products to get the decimal value.

Hexadecimal digit values:

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

Example:

Hexadecimal: 1A3 Position values: 1 × 16² = 1 × 256 = 256 A (10) × 16¹ = 10 × 16 = 160 3 × 16⁰ = 3 × 1 = 3 Sum: 256 + 160 + 3 = 419

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