Hexadecimal Equations (Problem 4 4 , Version 2 2 )

( 2 × 6 × 18 ) F + ( 3 × 9 × 27 ) B + 3 D + ( 3 × 16 ) C + 2 A + ( 2 × 256 × 10 × 5 ) E = (2 \times 6 \times 18)F + (3 \times 9 \times 27)B + 3D + (3 \times 16)C + 2A + (2 \times 256 \times 10 \times 5)E = ?

Give your answer in denary.

Bonus (in the Discussion): Convert the answer to hexadecimal.

Note: Anything in brackets is denary.

Note 2 2 : Perform the calculations in the brackets and then remove the brackets.


The answer is 2488587.

2 × 6 × 18 = 216 2 \times 6 \times 18 = 216

3 × 9 × 27 = 729 3 \times 9 \times 27 = 729

3 × 16 = 48 3 \times 16 = 48

2 × 256 × 10 × 5 = 25600 2 \times 256 \times 10 \times 5 = 25600

216 F + 729 B + 3 D + 48 C + 2 A + 25600 E 216F + 729B + 3D + 48C + 2A + 25600E

F = 15 , B = 11 , D = 13 , C = 12 , A = 10 , E = 14 F = 15, B = 11, D = 13, C = 12, A = 10, E = 14

2 × 1 6 3 + 1 × 1 6 2 + 6 × 1 6 1 = 2 × 4096 + 1 × 256 + 6 × 16 = 8192 + 256 + 96 = 8544 + 15 = 8559 2 \times 16^3 + 1 \times 16^2 + 6 \times 16^1 = 2 \times 4096 + 1 \times 256 + 6 \times 16 = 8192 + 256 + 96 = 8544 + 15 = 8559

7 × 1 6 3 + 2 × 1 6 2 + 9 × 1 6 1 = 7 × 4096 + 2 × 256 + 9 × 16 = 28672 + 512 + 144 = 29328 + 11 = 29339 7 \times 16^3 + 2 \times 16^2 + 9 \times 16^1 = 7 \times 4096 + 2 \times 256 + 9 \times 16 = 28672 + 512 + 144 = 29328 + 11 = 29339

3 × 1 6 1 = 3 × 16 = 48 + 13 = 61 3 \times 16^1 = 3 \times 16 = 48 + 13 = 61

4 × 1 6 2 + 8 × 1 6 1 = 4 × 256 + 8 × 16 = 1024 + 128 = 1152 + 12 = 1164 4 \times 16^2 + 8 \times 16^1 = 4 \times 256 + 8 \times 16 = 1024 + 128 = 1152 + 12 = 1164

2 × 1 6 1 = 2 × 16 = 32 + 10 = 42 2 \times 16^1 = 2 \times 16 = 32 + 10 = 42

2 × 1 6 5 + 5 × 1 6 4 + 6 × 1 6 3 + 0 × 1 6 2 + 0 × 1 6 1 = 2 × 1048576 + 5 × 65536 + 6 × 4096 = 2097152 + 327680 + 24576 = 2449408 + 14 = 2449422 2 \times 16^5 + 5 \times 16^4 + 6 \times 16^3 + 0 \times 16^2 + 0 \times 16^1 = 2 \times 1048576 + 5 \times 65536 + 6 \times 4096 = 2097152 + 327680 + 24576 = 2449408 + 14 = 2449422

8559 + 29339 + 61 + 1164 + 42 + 2449422 8559 + 29339 + 61 + 1164 + 42 + 2449422

8559 + 29339 + 1206 + 61 + 2449422 8559 + 29339 + 1206 + 61 + 2449422

8559 + 29339 + 1267 + 2449422 8559 + 29339 + 1267 + 2449422

8559 + 29339 + 1267 + 2449422 8559 + 29339 + 1267 + 2449422

37898 + 1267 + 2449422 37898 + 1267 + 2449422

2487320 + 1267 2487320 + 1267

2488587 2488587

Answer 2488587 \rightarrow \fbox{2488587}

For the Bonus:

2488587 2488587

Do division by 16 16 to obtain the L.H.S of the modulo calculations.

2488587 ( mod ( 16 ) ) = 11 2488587 (\text{mod}(16)) = 11

155536 ( mod ( 16 ) ) = 0 155536 (\text{mod}(16)) = 0

9721 ( mod ( 16 ) ) = 9 9721 (\text{mod}(16)) = 9

607 ( mod ( 16 ) ) = 15 607 (\text{mod}(16)) = 15

37 ( mod ( 16 ) ) = 5 37 (\text{mod}(16)) = 5

2 ( mod ( 16 ) ) = 2 2 (\text{mod}(16)) = 2

Read the remainders from bottom to top:

25159011 25159011

Since F = 15 , B = 11 F = 15, B = 11 :

25 F 90 B 25F90B

Bonus Answer 25 F 90 B \rightarrow 25F90B
