What is Hex to Decimal Converter?

Hexadecimal (base 16) is the number system most commonly used by developers to represent binary data in a compact, human-readable form. It uses digits 0–9 and letters A–F, where A = 10, B = 11, ..., F = 15.

To convert hex to decimal, multiply each digit by 16 raised to its positional power (starting from the right at 0) and sum the results. For example, 1A3: - 1 × 16² = 256 - A (10) × 16¹ = 160 - 3 × 16⁰ = 3 Total: 256 + 160 + 3 = 419

Frequently Asked Questions

Are hex letters case-sensitive?
No. The converter accepts both uppercase (A–F) and lowercase (a–f) hex digits interchangeably.
What does the 0x prefix mean?
The 0x prefix is a C/C++ and many-language convention for denoting hexadecimal literals, distinguishing them from decimal numbers. This tool accepts values with or without it.
Can this convert very large hex values?
Yes. The tool uses JavaScript's BigInt for arbitrary-precision arithmetic, so there is no practical size limit.
