| As you can see, unlike the decimal number system, which represents all numbers using 10 different symbols (0-9), the HEX number system represents those same numbers using 16 different symbols (0-F). It just so happens that each of the HEX digits perfectly corresponds to one of all possible 4-bit combinations. Any one byte can thus be represented by 2 HEX digits - all you need to do is to refer to the table above, pick two hexadecimal digits, and write them together. To get the corresponding binary number, just replace the HEX digit with its binary equivalent from the table. | As you can see, unlike the decimal number system, which represents all numbers using 10 different symbols (0-9), the HEX number system represents those same numbers using 16 different symbols (0-F).
