Problem 15
The binary representation of an integer can also be used to find its hexadecimal representation. Group the bits in fours from right to left and then replace each group with the equivalent hexadecimal digit. For instance, $$243=11110011_{\text {two }}=1111 \text { 0011 }_{\text {two }}=\mathrm{F} 3_{\text {sixteen }}$$ Using this method express each binary number in base 16. $$1110101_{\text {two }}$$
