Worksheet for Hex to Binary, Decimal & Octal Conversion

This worksheet help you to understand how to convert Hex numbers into equivalent decimal, binary and octal values. Since Hex values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E and F, the base of Hexadecimal value is 16. The equivalent character values of A = 10, B = 11, C = 12, D = 13, E = 14, F = 15.

Example to convert HEX number 4B5A to decimal:
(4 x 16³) + (11 x 16²) + (5 x 16¹) + (10 x 16⁰) = 19290.

Example to convert HEX to binary:
Converting each digit of a hex number individually produces its binary equivalent.

Example:
Convert 4B5 to binary value

4 ------------- 0100
B ------------- 1011
5 ------------- 0101

the binary equivalent is 010010110101

Example to convert HEX to Octal:
For easy conversion we have to follow two steps to convert Hex to octal as they are
Step1: convert hexadecimal to binary
Step2: Then convert the binary value into octal.

Example:
Convert 4B5 to its octal equivalent
4B5 = 0100 1011 0101
Then convert the binary to octal,

010 010 110 101
->2 ->2 ->6 ->5


The Octal equivalent is 2265
