How to extract the opcode and the data form the instruction

How to extract the opcode and the data form the instruction? "instruction" is inst below in decimal. For some values of "??", I should be able to extract the opCode and data???
opCode = inst >>??;
data = inst & ??;
It is done on a x86 processor using C.
It is 16 bit in total.
Starting from 0 from the right to left.
11th to 15th bit is OpCode.
0 to 9th bit is Data.
Is there a shortcut using hexadecimal notation?
