493 in Hex

Decimal 493 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of (493)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 493 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.

(493)10 in hex is equal to:
(493)10 = (?)16

Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 493, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-16 of 493	493 / 16 = 30	Remainder is 13 → LSB
MOD-16 of 30	30 / 16 = 1	Remainder is 14
MOD-16 of 1	1 / 16 = 0	Remainder is 1 → MSB

Arrange the remainders of MOD-16 of 493 from MSB to LSB (1 14 13) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 493.

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 1 in hex is 1 → MSB
Decimal 14 in hex is E
Decimal 13 in hex is D → LSB

= 1ED
493₁₀ = 1ED₁₆

Hence,
493 in hex is 1ED

where,
493₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 493₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1ED₁₆ is the hex equivalent of the decimal 493,
16 in 1ED₁₆ represents the base-16 or hexadecimal number system.
