Answer»

Right OPTION is (a) 10101111 10100011

The explanation is: The sender side adds the bits of the fragmented packet to FIND a sum. CHECKSUM is the compliment of the sum (exchange 0’s and 1’s). The receiver then has to verify the checksum by adding the bits of the received packet to ensure that the packet is error-free.
