The MD5 algorithm produces a fixed-length checksum of 128 bits, which is typically represented as a 32-character hexadecimal string.
Breakdown:
128 bits = 16 bytes
Each byte = 2 hexadecimal characters.
So: 16 bytes × 2 characters = 32 characters.
The correct answer is D. 16. The MD5 algorithm produces a 128-bit hash value, which is typically represented as a 32-character hexadecimal string, but in terms of raw bytes, it is 16 bytes long.
It doesn't matter whether we take a hash of system file or ordinary file. MD5 length is 128 bits. In chars it is 16 chars. 128/8 = 16. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5
But it does matter since its asking for the checksum. Not the fixed length output
