In a digital communications system, a network router assigns a specific 8-bit priority tag to data packets. A particular high-priority video packet is marked with the hexadecimal tag B6\text{B}6B6.
To enable hardware-level filtering at the network interface card, this tag must be processed in its binary form.
Convert the hexadecimal value B6\text{B}6B6 into an 8-bit binary number, showing your working clearly.
