501 in Hex

Decimal 501 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of (501)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 501 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.

(501)10 in hex is equal to:
(501)10 = (?)16

Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 501, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-16 of 501	501 / 16 = 31	Remainder is 5 → 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 501 from MSB to LSB (1 15 5) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 501.

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 5 in hex is 5 → LSB

= 1F5
501₁₀ = 1F5₁₆

Hence,
501 in hex is 1F5

where,
501₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 501₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1F5₁₆ is the hex equivalent of the decimal 501,
16 in 1F5₁₆ represents the base-16 or hexadecimal number system.

Important Notes: (501)10 in Hex
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 501 into a (base-16) hexadecimal equivalent.

1. The initial remainder of MOD-16 operation for 501 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
2. The last remainder of MOD-16 operation for 501 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
3. Arrange the reminders of mod-16 of 501 from MSB to LSB and replace each reminder by the corresponding hex equivalent forms the actual hex value of decimal 501.
