Decoding Process: bWFucG93ZXI= to manpower

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bWFucG93ZXI=" 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
F	000101	5
u	101110	46
c	011100	28
G	000110	6
9	111101	61
3	110111	55
Z	011001	25
X	010111	23
I	001000	8
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101101 01100001 01101110 01110000 01101111 01110111 01100101 01110010 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101101	m
01100001	a
01101110	n
01110000	p
01101111	o
01110111	w
01100101	e
01110010	r
00

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