Decimal 240 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of
(240)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 240 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.
(240)10 in hex is equal to:
(240)10 = (?)16
Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 240, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
MOD-16 of 240 | 240 / 16 = 15 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
MOD-16 of 15 | 15 / 16 = 0 | Remainder is 15 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders of MOD-16 of 240 from MSB to LSB
(15 0) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 240.
Decimal | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 |
Hex | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | A | B | C | D | E | F |
Decimal 15 in hex is F →
