Using the Hex Calculator
Letter case does not change the input value. Results are displayed in uppercase, and division reports a quotient and remainder in the same base.
Worked example
Use the example inputs below to reproduce this result. These are the form's starting values, not recommended targets. Changing your inputs updates your result above; this worked example stays fixed for comparison. Results are rounded for display.
Example inputs
- First integer
- FF
- Operation
- +
- Second integer
- 10
Example result
- Result
- 10F
Method and assumptions
Exact integer arithmetic. Division returns an integer quotient and remainder; binary and hexadecimal inputs are unsigned.
Keep exact values exact
Whole-number problems often need an exact answer rather than a rounded decimal. Check the permitted range and input notation before pasting a large number. A leading minus sign, a decimal point or a base prefix can change whether an entry is valid. Where the tool returns an exact integer or factorization, preserve that form for later calculations.
Common question
Why does hexadecimal use letters?
A base-sixteen digit needs sixteen symbols. After 0 through 9, A through F represent decimal values ten through fifteen.
