00101011 = 2B(H)?

For hexadecimal.

0010 = 2.
1011 = B.

How 00101011 = 2B ? Please explain.

One simple logic among answers is 43 is odd number. So always LSB is 1 and Hexadecimal also odd number should come as left nibble like (B).

For hexadecimal to binary conversion of (43) which is in decimal form, convert 4 and the 3 into 4 bits separately, and then combine the answer.

4 = 0100.
3 = 0011.
43 = 01000011.

Hex to decimal:

Divide 43 by 2 as shown:

43/2 = 21 rem 1 again divide 21 with 2.

21/2 = 10 rem 1.
10/2 = 5 rem 0.
5/2 = 2 rem 1.
2/2 = 1 rem 0.

00101011 = 2B.

Can you please elaborate the explanation?

In a binary system all possible combinations of bits are valid.

In a BCD system there are 4 bits per digit. And the only valid combinations are 0(0000 Binary) through to 9(1001 Binary). If you want more digits then you have to add another 4-bit set.

So the number 43 would be represented by 101011 in binary and 0100 0011 in BCD.
