500 in Hex

Decimal 500 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of (500)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 500 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.

(500)10 in hex is equal to:
(500)10 = (?)16

Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 500, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-16 of 500	500 / 16 = 31	Remainder is 4 → LSB
MOD-16 of 31	31 / 16 = 1	Remainder is 15
MOD-16 of 1	1 / 16 = 0	Remainder is 1 → MSB

Arrange the remainders of MOD-16 of 500 from MSB to LSB (1 15 4) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 500.

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 15 in hex is F
Decimal 4 in hex is 4 → LSB

= 1F4
500₁₀ = 1F4₁₆

Hence,
500 in hex is 1F4

where,
500₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 500₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1F4₁₆ is the hex equivalent of the decimal 500,
16 in 1F4₁₆ represents the base-16 or hexadecimal number system.

Important Notes: (500)10 in Hex
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 500 into a (base-16) hexadecimal equivalent.

1. The initial remainder of MOD-16 operation for 500 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
2. The last remainder of MOD-16 operation for 500 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
3. Arrange the reminders of mod-16 of 500 from MSB to LSB and replace each reminder by the corresponding hex equivalent forms the actual hex value of decimal 500.
