Understanding Base 16 Arithmetic

The video tutorial explains how to convert numbers from base 16 to base 10 to find their quotient. It begins by discussing the place values in base 16, then demonstrates the conversion of two numbers, 3F7 and 23, from base 16 to base 10. Finally, it calculates the quotient of these numbers in base 10, resulting in a quotient of 29.

What is the first step in finding the quotient of two numbers written in base 16?

• Convert both numbers to base 10
