688 in Hex

Decimal 688 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of (688)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 688 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.

(688)10 in hex is equal to:
(688)10 = (?)16

Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 688, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-16 of 688	688 / 16 = 43	Remainder is 0 → LSB
MOD-16 of 43	43 / 16 = 2	Remainder is 11
MOD-16 of 2	2 / 16 = 0	Remainder is 2 → MSB

Arrange the remainders of MOD-16 of 688 from MSB to LSB (2 11 0) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 688.

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 2 in hex is 2 → MSB
Decimal 11 in hex is B
Decimal 0 in hex is 0 → LSB

= 2B0
688₁₀ = 2B0₁₆

Hence,
688 in hex is 2B0

where,
688₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 688₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
2B0₁₆ is the hex equivalent of the decimal 688,
16 in 2B0₁₆ represents the base-16 or hexadecimal number system.
