Solution - Base conversion

3, 775

3,775

Step-by-step explanation

${(E B F)}_{16} = b a s e 10$

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

${(E B F)}_{16} = 14 \cdot 16^{2} + 11 \cdot 16^{1} + 15 \cdot 16^{0}$

$14 \cdot 16^{2} + 11 \cdot 16^{1} + 15 \cdot 16^{0} = 3775$

Expand each digit by place value: $14 \cdot 16^{2}$
+ $11 \cdot 16^{1}$
+ $15 \cdot 16^{0}$ . This gives $3, 775$ in base 10.

$\frac{3775}{10} = 377 r e m a \in d e r 5$

$\frac{377}{10} = 37 r e m a \in d e r 7$

$\frac{37}{10} = 3 r e m a \in d e r 7$

$\frac{3}{10} = 0 r e m a \in d e r 3$

$5 \to 7 \to 7 \to 3 = 3775$

$3775 (b a s e 10) = {(3775)}_{10}$

Repeatedly divide $3, 775$ by $10$ , collect remainders, and read them in reverse to get $3, 775$ .
