4.hexidecimal Number System

The document discusses the hexadecimal number system which uses 16 symbols (0-9 and A-F) with each symbol representing a 4-bit binary number. It provides examples of converting between decimal, hexadecimal and binary representations. Some key points include: - Hexadecimal positional weights are in multiples of 16 - To convert between number systems, represent each place value in the equivalent base - Binary to hexadecimal converts 4-bit groups to symbols - Hexadecimal to decimal treats each symbol as its place value multiplied by 16 raised to its position
