Address of the block is –

A. 214
B. 216
C. 28
D. 224

Explanation: Since 180 is between 128 and 191, it is class B address n=16. N = 2(32-n) = 216 = 65,536.

First Address is –

A. 180.8.0.0
B. 180.7.64.0
C. 180.8.1.256
D. 180.12.0.0

Explanation: Keep the leftmost 16 bits and set the rightmost 16 bits all to 0s. First address = 180.8.0.0, in which 16 is the value of n.
