Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Solution: Convert the 48-bit binary address into six 8-bit bytes and then convert each byte to hexadecimal.
Step 1 — group into bytes: 01011010 00010001 01010101 00011000 10101010 00001111
01011010 = 5A
00010001 = 11
01010101 = 55
00011000 = 18
10101010 = AA
00001111 = 0F
Answer: The hexadecimal Ethernet address is 5A:11:55:18:AA:0F
