Explanation for the correct option:

Convert hexadecimal equivalent of decimal number 785

Decimal number is based on 10numbers that are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. But hexadecimal base on 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F. These A,B,C,D,E,F use as a single digit in place of 10,11,12,13,14,15.

To convert a decimal into hexadecimal number, we divide the decimal number by 16 and note the remainder. Again divide the quotient by 16and note the remainder. The process goes ahead until we get 0 as a quotient. Then note the remainder in reverse order means from bottom to up.

785÷16=49, remainder is 1

49÷16=3, remainder is 1

3÷16=0, remainder is 3

The hexadecimal equivalent of decimal number 785 is 311.
Hence option B is the correct option.
