Example Hex to Decimal Conversion

Let's say your Hex value is A54, and you want to convert it to its decimal form.

1. Step 1: Break the Hex number into digits: A 5 4
2. Step 2: Convert each hex digit into Decimal
   • A → 10
   • 5 → 5
   • 4 → 4
3. Step 3: Multiply each digit with a power of 16
   • 10 becomes (10 x 162) = 2560
   • 5 becomes (5 x 161) = 80
   • 4 becomes (4 x 160) = 4
4. Step 4: Add the numbers: 2560 + 80 + 4 = 2644
5. Step 5: 2644 is the decimal equivalent of your hex number A54
