What is then notation of this modified mask 255 255 255 248

What is the/n notation of this modified mask: 255 255 255 248? For this modified mask, the number of host bits H = bits and the number of network bits N = If this modified mask belongs to an IP address originally of a class C, then the number of borrowed bits = bits. Using this modified mask, the total number of hosts = and the number of valid hosts =

Solution

The common subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111000 in binary. This adds up to 29 1\'s, or /29
