The prefix "0x" explicitly indicates that the following sequence of characters is a hexadecimal number. The digits themselves, 3, D, 4, 7, and 8, have specific numerical values when converted to decimal. '3' represents 3, 'D' represents 13, '4' represents 4, '7' represents 7, and '8' represents 8. To convert 0x3D478 to decimal, one would multiply each digit by the corresponding power of 16 and sum the results: (3 16^4) + (13 16^3) + (4 16^2) + (7 16^1) + (8 16^0). This calculation yields a decimal value.
