Important Notes: (FA)16 in Decimal
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-16) hexadecimal number (FA)16 into a (base-10) decimal equivalent.
- Each digit of given hex number FA should be replaced by the equivalent decimal number before multiplying with 16 power values, but this conversion is not the actual decimal equivalent of (FA)16.
- The decimal equivalent of right most number A in hex FA should be multiplied with 160
- The decimal equivalent of left most number F in hex FA should be multiplied with 16(no. of digits in hex - 1).
How-to: What is (FA)16 in decimal?
The below step-by-step solution shows how to convert the hexadecimal number (FA)16 to decimal. To find the decimal equivalent of (FA)16, replace each digit of the given hex number by the equivalent decimal number, so (FA)16 becomes 15 10. Find the product of 160 and 10, 161 and 15. The sum of all individual products is the decimal equivalent of hex FA.
Solved Example: Convert the hexadecimal number (fa)16 to decimal equivalent.step 1 Observe the input parameters, values and what to be found:
Input values:
Hexadecimal Number = (FA)16
What to be found:
What is the decimal equivalent of hexadecimal (fa)16?
(FA)16 = (?)10
step 2 Replace each digit of the given hex number (FA)16 by the equivalent decimal number by referring the below hex and decimal number system table.
| 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 |
From left to right of hex FA,
The decimal equivalent of hex F is 15
The decimal equivalent of hex A is 10
So, the (FA)16 becomes 15 10
step 3 Multiply 160 and 10, 161 and 15 and find the sum of all individual products produce the actual decimal equivalent of hex (FA)16.
= (15 x 161) + (10 x 160)
step 4 Resolve the powers of 16 in the above equation and simplify further:
= (15 x 16) + (10 x 1)
= 240 + 10
= 250
FA16 = 25010
Hence,
the decimal equivalent of hexadecimal number (FA)16 is (250)10
