Hexadecimal Addition Calculator

How to Use the Calculator

1. Enter the first hexadecimal number in the "Hexadecimal Number 1" field. Hexadecimal numbers use digits 0-9 and letters A-F.
2. Enter the second hexadecimal number in the "Hexadecimal Number 2" field.
3. Click the "Calculate" button to add the two hexadecimal numbers.
4. The calculator will display the result in hexadecimal format.
5. You can click "Reset" to clear the inputs and start over.

Understanding Hexadecimal Addition

Hexadecimal addition works similarly to decimal addition, but it uses base-16 instead of base-10. When adding hexadecimal digits, if the sum is greater than 15, you need to subtract 16 and carry over 1 to the next higher digit.

Example

Let's add 1A3 and 4B2:

• 1A3 (hex) = 419 (dec)
• 4B2 (hex) = 1206 (dec)
• 419 + 1206 = 1625 (dec)
• 1625 (dec) = 645 (hex)

So, 1A3 + 4B2 = 645 in hexadecimal.

Valid Hexadecimal Characters

The calculator accepts hexadecimal numbers using the following characters:

• 0-9 (representing decimal values 0-9)
• A-F (representing decimal values 10-15)
• Upper and lower case are both accepted (e.g., A and a are the same)

Notes

The calculator does not handle negative numbers or hexadecimal prefixes (like 0x). It also doesn't handle hexadecimal subtraction, multiplication, or division.
