    Hi!

    The correct answer is 3 bits.

    Explanation:

    Each connected network needs a unique address.

    If you borrow 3 bits from the host portion of an address then you have a combination of:

    .000

    .001

    .010

    .011

    .100

    .101

    .110

    .111

    The borrowed address from the host portion, in this case, are 2³ = 8 address, this means that you have 3 address left before needing more bits.
