Length Match

The declared count is checked against the body.

highlighted = computed this step

The header declares a length

Content-Length declares 5 bytes.

The body count is recomputed

The body byte count recomputes to 5.

The two counts match

The check row says yes because the declared count and recomputed count are the same.
