Any data is stored internally in the computer as binary digits, but those are "bulky" - you need 4 binary digits for every hexadecimal digit, so hexadecimal is really a kind of shortcut to write out binary numbers.
Decimal is another option, but conversion between binary and decimal is more cumbersome than with hexadecimal. Therefore, for the new IP addresses (IP version 6), they decided to write them down in hexadecimal, instead of the decimal that is used for IPv4.

How many bits are in a MAC Address and how is a MAC address commonly represented?
MAC (Medium Access Control) addresses, part of the 802 family of IEEE standards, have 48 bits. They are typically represented as six pairs of hexadecimal digits, eg: 00-11-22-DD-EE-FF (each digit is comprised of the hexadecimal digits 0-9 and A-F, from 0 to 15 decimal). Each hexadecimal digit is 4 bits in length, so the pair is 8 bits. Thus, the pair of numbers can represent decimal values from 0 to 255. In some notations, the "-" is replaced with ":", eg 00:11:22:DD:EE:FF. The pair of digits can also be referred to as an octet or a byte.
