These information most times are the login credentials such as debit/credit card details, usernames and passwords/PIN etc. Fraudsters carryout phishing by sending out messages (mostly electronic mails) to their victims, these messages appear as though they are genuine and official from institutions known to the victim (for example banks).

. Convert your age into binary and then to hexadecimal. Show your work.
Dovator [93]

Explanation:

Age = 23.

To convert a base 10 number to hexadecimal number we have to repeatedly divide the decimal number by 16 until  it becomes zero and store the remainder in the reverse direction of obtaining them.

23/16=1 remainder = 5

1/16=0 remainder = 1

Now writing the remainders in reverse direction that is 15.

My age in hexadecimal number is (15)₁₆.
