Answer / indu

E

Explanation:

This is a tricky one. Even though your parent subnet is of Class B,

your network nodes extend beyond the Class B/Class C border (24th bit)

because you are using 12 bits subnets. Basically, you taking this

big network and splitting to many many little subnetworks.

Number of subnets = 2^12-2 = 4096 -2 = 4094 subnets

Number of hosts per subnet = 2^4 -2 = 14 hosts
