the place values for base 16 numbering starting from right to left are 16^0, 16^1,16^2,16^3, etc. In case your wondering 16^1 means 16 to the power of 1, or just 16. Like wise 16^3 = 16 * 16 * 16. So if you hex value is 2f2, starting with the right most 2, (16^0 * 2)+ (16^1 * 15) + (16^2 * 2). Which breaks down to 2+240+512= 754 in base 10. Also hex digits are 0-9, A=10, B=11,C=12,D=13,E=14,F=15. Hope this helps if you still need clarification let me know, I just took a hudge math coarse last semester and this stuff is still floating around in my head.
