E.172.37.2.55 to 172.37.2.126

Answer: C

Explanation: When we say 28 bits of subnetting, this is similar to a CIDR question. We have a subnet mask of 28 bits of ones followed by 4 bits of zeros, or 255.255.255.240, and gives subnets with a stride of 16, or 14 hosts per subnet (16-2 because we subtract out the two broadcast ranges of all zeros and all ones)

This will yield subnets, some networks are as follows: 172.37.2.0.

172.37.2.16

172.37.2.32

172.37.2.48

172.37.2.64

etc…

So, we can fit a network of 172.37.2.48-172.37.2.63

172.37.2.48is the network, and the all zeros broadcast range.

172.37.2.63is the broadcast, and is the all ones broadcast range.

So, we can’t user 48 or 63, and the valid host address range would be 49-62.

C is correct; this is the only range that fits.

Incorrect Answers:

A, B, D, and E are incorrect; these are not the proper ranges with the information provided in the question.
