If a network has an address of 172.30.33.0 and a subnet mask of 255.255.240.0, how many subnets is the original network divided into? And how many addresses can be used in a subnet?


What I have tried:

172.30.33.0 = 10101100.00011110.0010 0001.00000000
255.255.240.0 = 11111111.11111111.1111 0000.00000000
I can calculate the total number of hosts = 2^12 - 2 = 4094
But how do I get the subnet count?
Thank you.

While we are more than willing to help those that are stuck, that doesn't mean that we are here to do it all for you! We can't do all the work, you are either getting paid for this, or it's part of your grades and it wouldn't be at all fair for us to do it all for you.

So we need you to do the work, and we will help you when you get stuck. That doesn't mean we will give you a step by step solution you can hand in!
Start by explaining where you are at the moment, and what the next step in the process is. Then tell us what you have tried to get that next step working, and what happened when you did.
