Convert 136 from decimal to hexadecimal

(base 16) notation:

Power Test

Raise our base of 16 to a power

Start at 0 and increasing by 1 until it is >= 136

16⁰ = 1

16¹ = 16

16² = 256 <--- Stop: This is greater than 136

Since 256 is greater than 136, we use 1 power less as our starting point which equals 1

Build hexadecimal notation

Work backwards from a power of 1

We start with a total sum of 0:

16¹ = 16

The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 136 is 8

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 8 * 16 = 128

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
0 + 128 = 128

This is <= 136, so we assign our outside coefficient of 8 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 128

Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to 8

16⁰ = 1

The highest coefficient less than 15 we can multiply this by to stay under 136 is 8

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 8 * 1 = 8

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
128 + 8 = 136

This = 136, so we assign our outside coefficient of 8 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 136

Our hexadecimal notation is now equal to 88
