0x1860

0x1860 is a hexadecimal number, which is a base-16 numeral system. In this system, digits range from 0 to 9 and then A to F, representing values 10 through 15. To convert 0x1860 to decimal (base-10), we can multiply each digit by the corresponding power of 16 and sum the results. Starting from the rightmost digit, which is 0, we have 0 16^0 = 0. The next digit is 6, so 6 16^1 = 96. The next digit is 8, so 8 16^2 = 8 256 = 2048. Finally, the leftmost digit is 1, so 1 16^3 = 1 4096 = 4096. Summing these values: 4096 + 2048 + 96 + 0 = 6240. Therefore, 0x1860 in hexadecimal is equivalent to 6240 in decimal. Hexadecimal notation is commonly used in computing, particularly in memory addressing, color codes, and representing binary data in a more human-readable format. For instance, a byte (8 bits) can be represented by two hexadecimal digits.
