Final answer:

To enable USB debugging on an Android device, you must first unlock Developer options by tapping the 'Build number' in the 'About phone' or 'About tablet' section of Settings. Then, within Developer options, find and toggle 'USB debugging' to enable it.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find USB debugging on an Android device, you will need to enable the Developer options which are hidden by default. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the Settings app on your Android device.
  2. Scroll down and tap on 'About phone' or 'About tablet'.
  3. Find the 'Build number' entry and tap on it multiple times (usually 7 times) until you see a message that says 'You are now a developer!'.
  4. Go back to the main Settings menu and you will now see a new option called 'Developer options'.
  5. Tap on 'Developer options' and scroll down to find 'USB debugging'.
  6. Toggle the switch next to 'USB debugging' to enable it.

Remember to turn off USB debugging when you are done using it as it can pose security risks if left enabled.
