Hexadecimal is base sixteen counting--as if you had sixteen fingers instead of ten. In normal base ten, there are ten symbols: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
before you make up a one bunch of the next larger size, which is written:
10
where the place of the digit represents the size of the bunch it represents. Notice you've recycled the "1" symbol and have interpreted it as "1" bunch of size "ten". The "0" symbol to its right means that there are no smaller "size one" bunches around.

In base sixteen, the bunch size for moving up a place is sixteen. Therefore you need sixteen different symbols, which means you have to invent six more than the usual number. The most common choices are ABCDEF, so the complete set is
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F.
"B in base sixteen" stands for "11 in base ten."

+/- notation remains the same, so your answer should be -B.

-11 decimal is -B hexadecimal. Hexdecimal digits are 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 eight 9 A B C D E F Which correspond to zero 1 2 three 4 5 6 7 eight 9 10 eleven 12 thirteen 14 15 in decimal. Extra background: 234 in decimal is 2x100+3x10+4X1 234 in hexadecmal = 2x256+3X16+4, one other number. To transform 687 decimal, subtract out as many sixteen^2=256s as that you could (which might be 2), leaving a hundred seventy five. Subtract out as many 16s as that you would be able to (10x16=160), leaving 15. So you may have 2 a hundred's (base sixteen), a 10's (base 16) plus F (base 16) 687 decimal = 512+a hundred and sixty+15=2*256+10*sixteen+15=2AF hexadecimal

-11 = F5

here's why:
-X = complement(X)+1
complement(11)+1
complement(0B)+1
F4+1
F5
