Can pinpoint this easily by only looking at R8: 255.255.255.0 is enough = Answer is C

Calculating R7 reveals the answer. With 10% growth it makes less than 1024 hosts. That means /22 subnet which is 255.255.252.0.

Here we will do the following with no more than 10% possible growth R7 expects 923 + 92 = 1015 hosts R8 expect 225 + 23 = 248 hosts R9 expects 3641 + 364 = 4005 hosts R7 must use SM /22 at-least or less ( which gives 1022 usable IPs) R8 must use SM /24 or less (which gives 254 usable IPs) R9 must use SM /20 or less (which gives 4094 usable IPs) All answers are correct, but C uses /24 , /22 & /20 SM for router R7, R8 AND R9 respectively. C gives the most efficient use.

Remember the powers of 2 to solve the question quickly 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096 1015 approximated to 1024, 512 not enough 248 closest to 256 4005 closest to 4096 R7 needs 10 zeros and the rest are ones in its SM, starting from the right 11111111.11111111.11111100.00000000 >>> 255.255.252.0 R8 needs 8 zeros and the rest are in its SM 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 >>> 255.255.255.0 R9 needs 12 zeros and the rest are ones in its SM 11111111.11111111.11110000.00000000 >>> 255.255.240.0

select the router with the lowest number of hosts, wich is r8, for 225 hosts it would be a minimun of 256 hosts wich is /24 wich is the only answer that has 255.255.255.0
