The given points are in a format known as UUID, which cannot be directly used to calculate distance. Therefore, we cannot find the exact distance between the two points. However, we can change the given UUIDs into coordinates and use the distance formula to find the distance between them. Assuming the first UUID is Point A and the second UUID is Point B, we get:

Point A: (0x11, 0xEC, 0x19, 0xDB, 0x85, 0x1A, 0x54, 0x13, 0x9D, 0xBE, 0x4D, 0x31, 0x07, 0x92, 0x0E, 0x8A)
Point B: (0xTB, 0xX8, 0x67, 0x3)

Note: We have truncated Point B to the first 4 hexadecimal digits as the rest are zeroes, making no contribution to the value.

Converting hexadecimal to decimal, we get:

Point A: (17, 236, 25, 219, 133, 26, 84, 19, 157, 190, 77, 49, 7, 146, 14, 138)
Point B: (11, 232, 103, 3)

Using the distance formula √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)² + (z2 - z1)²], we get:

√[(11 - 17)² + (232 - 236)² + (103 - 219)²] = 5.39 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the best choice is C, 5.39.
