Converting binary to hex is as easy as replacing each 4 digit of binary to equivalent digit of hex. If the binary
digits are not multiple of 4 for grouping, add enough zero to the left to make them multiple of 4.
Example:
Convert 0111 1010 1111 binary to hex
1111 = F
1010= A
0111 = 7
0111 1010 1111 binary = 7AF hex
Common terms:
Bit = binary digit
Nibble = 4 binary digits
