Check the binary conversion
Read 100111001101 from right to left using place values 1, 2, 4, 8 and successive powers of two. Keep the values whose bit is 1:
2048 + 256 + 128 + 64 + 8 + 4 + 1 = 2509
Check the hexadecimal conversion
9 × 16^2 + 12 × 16^1 + 13 × 16^0 = 2509
Hexadecimal uses A through F for digit values 10 through 15. These notations represent the same quantity; changing the base does not change the integer.

Digit sum and digital root of 2509
2509 contains 4 decimal digits. Its digit sum is 2 + 5 + 0 + 9 = 16.
- 2509: 2 + 5 + 0 + 9 = 16
- 16: 1 + 6 = 7
The digital root is 7. Reversing its digits gives 9052; it is not a decimal palindrome. Digit patterns depend on the notation being used.
Digital-root arithmetic always finishes at a single digit for a positive integer. Some numerology methods stop at 11, 22 or 33 instead; that is a separate interpretive convention.
Fractions and a worked comparison
As a fraction of 100, 2509/100 simplifies to 2509/100 by dividing both terms by their greatest common divisor, 1. Its decimal value is 25.09. Because the numerator exceeds the denominator, this value is greater than one.
The greatest common divisor of 2509 and 12 is 1. Their least common multiple is 30108. The identity GCD × LCM = 2509 × 12 = 30108 checks both results.

A reflective note on 2509
Meaning varies by tradition and personal experience. One sighting is not evidence of what will happen next.
The digits of 2509 add to 16. That arithmetic result is separate from the cultural symbolism of the pattern. If this number matters to you, write down what you noticed and choose one grounded action rather than treating the sighting as a prediction.
