Binary to hex

Lets start with a binary number

1110010111010

As with binary numbers you start from right to left.

Starting from right you divide the binary numbers into nibbles.

1 | 1 1 0 0 | 1 0 1 1 | 1 0 1 0

1 | 8 4 0 0 | 8 0 2 1 | 8 0 2 0

Remember the Rule of thumb!

For every number you do not use you put a 0(off).

1 | 0 + 0 + 4 + 8 | 1 + 2 + 0 + 8 | 0 + 2 + 0 + 8

1 | 12 | 11 | 10

Looking at the hex chart you can now substitute the numbers for the hex

1 | C | B | A
