742 in Hex

Decimal 742 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of (742)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 742 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.

(742)10 in hex is equal to:
(742)10 = (?)16

Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 742, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-16 of 742	742 / 16 = 46	Remainder is 6 → LSB
MOD-16 of 46	46 / 16 = 2	Remainder is 14
MOD-16 of 2	2 / 16 = 0	Remainder is 2 → MSB

Arrange the remainders of MOD-16 of 742 from MSB to LSB (2 14 6) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 742.

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 14 in hex is E
Decimal 6 in hex is 6 → LSB

= 2E6
742₁₀ = 2E6₁₆

Hence,
742 in hex is 2E6

where,
742₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 742₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
2E6₁₆ is the hex equivalent of the decimal 742,
16 in 2E6₁₆ represents the base-16 or hexadecimal number system.
