Best answer 5 votes 5 votes NETMASK = 255.255.255.224 224 = 11100000 => we have 5 host bits. A) 63 = 00111111 B) 93 = 01011101 C) 56 = 00111000 D) 87 = 01010111 In A all 5 host bits are 1 => It is the directed broadcast address in 15.234.118.32 subnet. dd answered Sep 20, 2016 selected Sep 20, 2016 by sourav. dd comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
