Encoding Process: firmly to ZmlybWx5

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII CharacterBinary Value
f01100110
i01101001
r01110010
m01101101
l01101100
y01111001

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

The binary string is grouped into 6-bit chunks for Base64 encoding:

011001 100110 100101 110010 011011 010110 110001 111001

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary ValueBase64 Character
011001Z
100110m
100101l
110010y
011011b
010110W
110001x
1110015

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "ZmlybWx5"
