1 votes 1 votes Suppose we have X byte of data in packet so packet size=x+3 and number of packet's(n=24) can be find n=48/X X=48/24 X=2 Bytes ,so Packet size is 2 of Bytes junaid ahmad answered Oct 9, 2017 junaid ahmad comment Share Follow See all 3 Comments See all 3 3 Comments reply jatinkumar commented Oct 10, 2017 reply Follow Share packet size will be 5 not 2 0 votes 0 votes junaid ahmad commented Oct 10, 2017 reply Follow Share @ jatinkumar if you include header in a packet size the yes it is 5 bytes. 0 votes 0 votes DAWID15 commented Dec 2, 2021 reply Follow Share You forgot to add the header value to your packet size.
