Conversion Formulas

Understand the math behind number system conversions

Decimal to Binary

Divide by 2, record remainders

Example: 13 → 1101 (13÷2=6r1, 6÷2=3r0, 3÷2=1r1, 1÷2=0r1)

Binary to Decimal

Sum of (digit × 2position)

Example: 1010 → (1×8)+(0×4)+(1×2)+(0×1) = 10

Hexadecimal Basics

1 hex digit = 4 binary digits

Example: F (hex) = 1111 (binary) = 15 (decimal)

Octal Basics

1 octal digit = 3 binary digits

Example: 7 (octal) = 111 (binary) = 7 (decimal)

Example Conversion

See how we convert the decimal number 255 to all formats

Starting Value:

255 (decimal)

To Binary:

255 ÷ 2 = 127 remainder 1
127 ÷ 2 = 63 remainder 1
63 ÷ 2 = 31 remainder 1
31 ÷ 2 = 15 remainder 1
15 ÷ 2 = 7 remainder 1
7 ÷ 2 = 3 remainder 1
3 ÷ 2 = 1 remainder 1
1 ÷ 2 = 0 remainder 1
Result: 0b11111111

Starting Value:

0b11111111 (binary)

To Decimal:

(1×128)+(1×64)+(1×32)+(1×16)+(1×8)+(1×4)+(1×2)+(1×1)
= 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1
Result: 255

Starting Value:

255 (decimal)

To Hexadecimal:

255 ÷ 16 = 15 remainder 15 (F)
15 ÷ 16 = 0 remainder 15 (F)
Result: 0xFF

Starting Value:

255 (decimal)

To Octal:

255 ÷ 8 = 31 remainder 7
31 ÷ 8 = 3 remainder 7
3 ÷ 8 = 0 remainder 3
Result: 0377

Number System Tips

Expert advice for working with different bases

  • Memorize powers of 2 up to 216 (65,536)
  • Rightmost bit is LSB (Least Significant Bit)
  • Leftmost bit is MSB (Most Significant Bit)
  • Common values: 0b10000000 = 128, 0b11111111 = 255
  • Hex digits A-F = decimal 10-15
  • Two hex digits = one byte (00 to FF = 0 to 255)
  • Common values: 0xFF = 255, 0x80 = 128, 0x7F = 127
  • Used in CSS colors, memory addresses, MAC addresses
  • Each digit represents exactly 3 binary digits
  • Common in Unix file permissions (chmod)
  • Maximum digit is 7 (since it’s base-8)
  • Leading zero identifies octal numbers

Common Use Cases

Where number conversions matter most

Programming

Developers use number conversions when working with bitmasks, memory addresses, color codes, and low-level programming.

Computer Science Education

Students learning about number systems can verify manual calculations and understand base conversions.

Network Engineering

Network professionals work with hexadecimal MAC addresses and IPv6 addresses that often need conversion.

Pro Tips

Advanced techniques from the experts

1

Keyboard Shortcuts

Press Enter after typing your number to convert instantly without clicking the button.

2

Prefix Awareness

Always use standard prefixes (0b, 0x) to avoid ambiguity in your code and documents.

3

Copy-Paste Efficiency

Click any result to copy it to clipboard – no need to manually select text.

4

Large Number Strategy

Break very large numbers into 32-bit chunks for easier mental verification.

Best Practices

Recommended approaches for number conversions

Verify Critical Conversions

Double-check important values even when using automated tools.

Use Consistent Notation

Stick to standard prefixes (0x, 0b) in your work to avoid confusion.

Understand Data Ranges

Know the maximum values for different data types (8-bit, 16-bit, etc.).

Comment Your Code

When using non-decimal literals, add comments explaining the value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

How accurate is the converter?

Our converter provides mathematically precise conversions using exact algorithms. It handles numbers up to 64 bits with perfect accuracy.

Does it support floating point numbers?

Currently, the converter only supports integer values. Floating point support is planned for a future update.

Can I convert negative numbers?

The current version processes positive integers only. Negative number support is coming soon.

Why use prefixes (0x, 0b)?

Prefixes eliminate ambiguity. For example, “10” could be decimal 10, binary 2, or hex 16 – the prefix makes it clear.

Is there an API available?

Not currently, but we’re developing an API for developers who want to integrate conversion functionality.
