Convert the following as specified DEC in hex to its decimal
Solution
1(a)
DEC in hex to its decimal
(DEC)16 = ( )10
= D*162 + E*161 + C*160
= 13*256 + 14*16 + 12*1
= 3328 + 224 +12
= (3564)10
b)
(DEC)16 to BCD
(DEC)16 = (3564)10
(3564)10 to BCD
3= 0011
5 = 0101
6 = 0110
4= 0100
BCD = 0011 0101 0110 0100
2(a)
1001 0111 0101 0010 BCD to octal
= 1001 =9, 0111=7, 0101=5, 0010 =2 from BCD to decimal =(9752)10
= (9752)10 to octal
remainders
8|9752
8|1219 0
8|152 3
8|19 0
8|2 3
|0 2
taking remainders in reverse
=(23030)8
b)
(7643)8 to hex
7 = 111
6=110
4=100
3= 011
three bits for octal number
= 111 110 100 011
taking 4 bits to denote hexadecimal number
= 1111 1010 0011
= (FA3) in hexadecimal
=(FA3)16
