Binary, hex and decimal converter

Convert whole numbers between decimal, binary, octal and hexadecimal.

Whole, non-negative numbers of any size.

How this calculator works

Each place is worth the base raised to a power. In binary 1011 = 1×8 + 0×4 + 1×2 + 1×1 = 11.

Worked example: 255 in decimal is 11111111 in binary and FF in hex. That's the largest value one byte can hold, which is why colour codes like #FF8800 use pairs of hex digits.
