    Study Notes

    Converting Hexadecimal to Denary

    • To convert a hexadecimal number to denary, multiply each hexadecimal digit by its corresponding heading value (e.g., 256, 16, 1).
    • Hexadecimal digits A-F represent the values 10-15 respectively.
    • Add all the resultant totals to get the denary equivalent.

    Examples

    • Example 1: Converting 45A to denary

      • 4 * 256 = 1024
      • 5 * 16 = 80
      • 10 * 1 = 10 (A represents 10)
      • 1024 + 80 + 10 = 1114 (Denary equivalent)
    • Example 2: Converting C8F to denary

      • (This example is similar to example 1, and follows the same procedure.)

    Uses of Hexadecimal

    • Error Codes: Often used to represent memory location of errors in computer systems.
    • MAC Addresses: Unique identifiers for devices on a network.
    • IPv6 Addresses: Used in internet protocol addressing.
    • HTML Colour Codes: Used to specify colours in HTML.

    HTML Colour Codes

    • HTML color codes use six hexadecimal digits to define RGB (Red, Green, Blue) components.
    • The '#' symbol precedes the hexadecimal code.
    • Each digit represents the intensity of Red, Green, and Blue (256 possible values per color).

    RGB to Hexadecimal Conversion (Example)

    • Activity requires converting denary RGB values to hexadecimal.

    Binary Numbers

    • The binary system is a base-2 number system using only 0s and 1s.
    • Binary numbers have headings like 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, etc.

    Converting Binary to Denary

    • Sum the column values (headings) where the binary digit is 1.
