Here is the jist of the question.
You have 2 subnets
A is 10.1.1.0/24
B is 10.1.2.0 /24
each subnet has 200 workstations. Question setup is that your router and other equipment cannot handle another subnet, but you need to add an additional 200 workstations to subnet A. You ISP has given you another /24 of 10.1.3.0.
Choose the best setup to be able to fit 400 workstations on subnet A. Here are the options.
1) use 10.1.1.0/24 (obviously wrong)
2) use 10.1.1.0/23
3) use 10.1.2.0/23
4) use 10.1.2.0/24 (obviously wrong)
I keep choosing #2 as the answer but it keeps telling me I'm wrong. But it doesn't explain WHY I'm wrong.
Can anyone help me out on what I'm missing?
