Decoding Process: cmF0aW9uYWxl to rationale

Step 1: Map Base64 Characters to Binary

Base64 CharacterBinary ValueDecimal Value
c01110028
m10011038
F0001015
011010052
a01101026
W01011022
911110161
u10111046
Y01100024
W01011022
x11000149
l10010137

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110010 01100001 01110100 01101001 01101111 01101110 01100001 01101100 01100101

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary ValueASCII Character
01110010r
01100001a
01110100t
01101001i
01101111o
01101110n
01100001a
01101100l
01100101e

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