Decoding Process: bW96YW1iaXF1ZQ== to mozambique

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bW96YW1iaXF1ZQ==" is padding. Base64 encoding requires the input length to be divisible by 4. When it's not, '=' characters are added as padding. These padding characters are represented as '000000' in binary but are not used in the final decoded output.

Step 1: Map Base64 Characters to Binary

Base64 Character	Binary Value	Decimal Value
b	011011	27
W	010110	22
9	111101	61
6	111010	58
Y	011000	24
W	010110	22
1	110101	53
i	100010	34
a	011010	26
X	010111	23
F	000101	5
1	110101	53
Z	011001	25
Q	010000	16
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

The binary string is grouped into 8-bit chunks (1 byte each):

01101101 01101111 01111010 01100001 01101101 01100010 01101001 01110001 01110101 01100101 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101101	m
01101111	o
01111010	z
01100001	a
01101101	m
01100010	b
01101001	i
01110001	q
01110101	u
01100101	e
0000

When combined, these characters form the decoded string: "mozambique"
