For two-digit values, a decimal number has two parts: a tens part on the left and a ones part on the right. The number 10 can be read as “one ten and zero ones,” and 36 can be read as “three tens and six ones.” A two-digit hex number also has two parts: a sixteens part on the left and a ones part on the right. The hex number 10 can be read as “one sixteen and zero ones” (making it the equivalent of 16 decimal), and 5C hex can be read as “five sixteens and C (twelve) ones,” making it the equivalent of 92 decimal.
