If you are looking to convert data from octal format to hexadecimal, you have come to the right place. Our octal to hex converter converts the information from octal digits to hexadecimal symbols.
Octal Number System
The octal numeral system or simply octal, is a base-8 numeral system and uses the digits 0 to 7 to encode data. Octal numerals can be made from binary numerals by grouping consecutive binary digits into groups of three (starting from the right).
Hexadecimal Number System
Hexadecimal or simply hex on the other hand, is a positional system with a base of 16. It employs 16 distinct symbols, the numbers \(0-9\) to characterize values zero to nine, and \(\mathbf{A, B, C, D, E, F (or a, b, c, d, e, f)}\) to characterize values ten to fifteen.
Conversion table
Example
Convert \(536\) from octal format to hex format
First, convert \(536\) into its binary equivalent. Doing so, we get:
\((536)8 = (101) (011) (110) = (101011110)2 \)
Now, let’s form the class of 4 binary bits to acquire its hexadecimal equivalent,
\((101011110)2= (0001) (0101) (1110) = (15E) 16 \)
So, the hex value of \(536\) is \(\mathbf{15E}\).
