Load up the Windows calculator. View/Scientific. Make sure the "Dec" button is selected. Put in the decimal value. Click on "Hex". You'll have the hex value. (Or do it in reverse to convert from hex to decimal.)

If you have access to a Moto Programming list, don't forget it is quite possible the list you look at will have the last 4 bits (nibble) not shown. For example Decimal TG 17536 would equal 0x4480, but might appear on your list as just "448".
