Hex Color Code Explanation

A Hex color code is a 6-symbol code commonly used in digital design. It represents colors in the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) format. Each pair of symbols in a hex code specifies the intensity of the red, green, and blue components of the color. These values range from 00 to FF in hexadecimal notation, corresponding to 0 to 255 in decimal. This system allows for over 16 million unique color combinations.

For example, #000000 represents the color Black. The three components combine in their lowest intensities (all zeros). If the first pair becomes FF, which means the maximum intensity of red, and the other two pairs are still 00 and 00, the color will become pure Red. This format is a compact and precise way to define colors in digital applications.

Hexadecimal to Decimal

In our examples above, we mentioned that “00” means the lowest intensity and “FF” means the highest intensity. How can we know that? Well, this understanding comes from how hexadecimal values are converted to decimal values.

To convert a hexadecimal value to decimal, each digit in the hexadecimal number is converted to its decimal equivalent and then multiplied by 16 raised to the power of its position, counting from right to left and starting at zero. For instance, in ‘FF’, F is 15 in decimal. The rightmost F is 15 * 16^0 = 15, and the second F from the right is 15 * 16^1 = 240. Adding these together, 15 + 240, gives us 255. Therefore, ‘FF’ represents full intensity for a color component in a hex color code.
