This document discusses different number systems including decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal. It provides details on how each system uses a different base and symbols. The key points covered include:
- Decimal uses base 10 with digits 0-9. Binary uses base 2 with digits 0-1. Octal uses base 8 with digits 0-7. Hexadecimal uses base 16 with digits 0-9 and A-F representing 10-15.
- Methods are described for converting between the different number systems including using powers of the base and shortcut tables for binary, octal, and hexadecimal.
- Examples are provided of converting decimal numbers to and from the other number systems through successive division and using place values of the base.
