Encoding Process: gravel to Z3JhdmVs

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII CharacterBinary Value
g01100111
r01110010
a01100001
v01110110
e01100101
l01101100

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

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

011001 110111 001001 100001 011101 100110 010101 101100

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary ValueBase64 Character
011001Z
1101113
001001J
100001h
011101d
100110m
010101V
101100s

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "Z3JhdmVs"
