14 hosts
There are 16 bits available; it is up to you how many of those bits you reserve for the subnet, and how many for the individual hosts within each subnet.
we need to borrow 7 bits to subnet 172.16.100.0 to have at least 500 hosts and the subnet mask will be 255.255.254.0
This question is unanswered.
255.255.252.0 is true
32 host per 8 subnet.
The default mask class B is 255.255.0.0 and this makes 16 bits available for hosts
4.1 to 7.254
Subnet Mask provides Network & Class Identificationfor an IP Address.
that gives you 16 subnets with 14 usable IPs for hosts that is because one is for subnet and one for broadcas in that subnet for example: 192.168.1.0/28 - subnet number 192.168.1.15 -broadcast number usable IPs for hosts - IPs between them that is 14
255.255.252.0
255.255.252.0
Address: 10.0.0.0 Mask: 255.0.0.0 Subnet bits: 0 1 subnet 8 mask bits total hosts 16777214 address range: 10.0.0.1 - 10.255.255.254 Using a single network: 16.78 million addresses Using VLSM more addresses can be made available.
