Hexadecimal digits 0 thru 9 are the same as decimal digits 0 thru 9.
Therefore, if a word is to contain only a BCD value, you can enter the
decimal digits directly as hexadecimal digits.

If you make an individual selection with each bit of a word, write down
the binary value and convert it to hexadecimal. For example:

binary

1001

1101

0100

0011

converts to hexadecimal

9

D

If a word is to contain a combination of a BCD value and individual bit
selections:

write down the BCD value
fill in the individual bit selections
convert the combined binary value to hexadecimal

For example, if a word is to have bits 17, 16, and 15 on plus the decimal
value 1972, you would:

write down the BCD value of 1972 as:

_____1 1001 0111 0010

fill in bits 17, 16, and 15 as:

1111 1001 0111 0010

convert it to hexadecimal as:

F 9 7 2
