722

722

Step-by-step explanation

${(2 D 2)}_{16} = b a s e 10$

Identify the source number, source base, and target base before converting through base 10.

${(2 D 2)}_{16} = 2 \cdot 16^{2} + 13 \cdot 16^{1} + 2 \cdot 16^{0}$

$2 \cdot 16^{2} + 13 \cdot 16^{1} + 2 \cdot 16^{0} = 722$

Expand each digit by place value: $2 \cdot 16^{2}$
+ $13 \cdot 16^{1}$
+ $2 \cdot 16^{0}$ . This gives $722$ in base 10.

$\frac{722}{10} = 72 r e m a \in d e r 2$

$\frac{72}{10} = 7 r e m a \in d e r 2$

$\frac{7}{10} = 0 r e m a \in d e r 7$

$2 \to 2 \to 7 = 722$

$722 (b a s e 10) = {(722)}_{10}$

Repeatedly divide $722$ by $10$ , collect remainders, and read them in reverse to get $722$ .
