Understanding the Number Base Converter
Programmers and students constantly convert between number systems: binary (base 2, used by digital hardware), octal (base 8), decimal (base 10, everyday numbers) and hexadecimal (base 16, used for colors, memory addresses and byte values). This converter handles all four directions and shows the value in every base at once.
Common examples: decimal 255 = binary 11111111 = octal 377 = hex FF. Decimal 16 = hex 10. The hex color #FFFFFF is three bytes, each 255 in decimal.
Number Base Converter FAQ
Repeatedly divide by 2 and record the remainders bottom-to-top, or just type the decimal number above and select "Binary" as the target. Example: 13 = 1101 in binary.
FF in hex equals 255 in decimal (15×16 + 15). One hex digit represents 4 bits, so two hex digits = one byte = 0–255.
Conversions are exact up to 2⁵³ (about 9.0 quadrillion), the safe-integer limit for precise calculation in the browser. Larger inputs are rejected to avoid rounding errors.
