A network with address 208.40.224.0/24 is divided into /28 subnets. What is the host address range of the fourth subnetwork?
B. 208.40.224.33 - 208.40.224.46 Here's the breakdown: The original network is 208.40.224.0/24. You are subnetting it into /28 subnets, which provides 16 IP addresses per subnet (14 usable host addresses, 1 network address, and 1 broadcast address). The subnets will have the following address ranges: Subnet 1: 208.40.224.0/28 → Range: 208.40.224.0 - 208.40.224.15 Subnet 2: 208.40.224.16/28 → Range: 208.40.224.16 - 208.40.224.31 Subnet 3: 208.40.224.32/28 → Range: 208.40.224.32 - 208.40.224.47 Subnet 4: 208.40.224.48/28 → Range: 208.40.224.48 - 208.40.224.63 The fourth subnet starts at 208.40.224.48 and ends at 208.40.224.63. The usable host address range is 208.40.224.49 - 208.40.224.62. So, 208.40.224.33 - 208.40.224.46 is the correct range for the third subnet, and 208.40.224.49 - 208.40.224.62 is the usable range for the fourth subnet, which aligns with answer choice B.
