I’m sorry if this question is way too simple, I’m new to this

how to solve this question?
“What is the latest Python version that is installed on the target?”
I already tried ‘python3 -V’ or ‘python3 -VV’ and I got Python 3.8.10
I tried to answer with ‘Python3’, ‘python3’, ‘Python 3.8.10’, ‘3.8.10’, and ‘3’
but none of them are right

how do I supposed to answer this?
thx

remember that different versions of python can be installed on the same system, so it might happen that the version being used is not the latest installed

use one of the commands in the module to list the installed binaries
the answer’s format is x.xx
