12 nibbles = ?
= 12 x 4
1

= 48bits

Conversion from Bytes to Word

1 word = 2 bytes

Convert 58 bytes to word

Since 1 word = 2bytes


? = 58 bytes
= 1 x 58
2

= 29words

Conversion from Word to Nibbles

1 word = 4 nibbles

Convert 5 words to nibbles

Since 1 word = 4 nibbles


5 words = ?
= 5x4
1

= 20 nibbles

Conversion from Bits to Word

1 word = 16 bits

Convert 64 bits to word

Since 1 word = 16 bits


? = 64 bits
= 1 x 64
16

= 4words

= 5x4
?

= 20 bytes

Conversion from Bits to Quad Word

1 quad word = 64bits

Convert 256 bits to quad word

Since 1 quad word = 64 bits


? = 256 bits
= 1 x 256
