  • 255.255.255.0
  • 255.255.255.128
  • 255.255.255.192
  • 255.255.255.224
  • 255.255.255.240
    Explanation:

    The largest subnet in the topology has 100 hosts in it so the subnet mask must have at least 7 host bits in it (27-2=126). 255.255.255.0 has 8 hosts bits, but this does not meet the requirement of providing the maximum number of subnets.
