5.Hard

The network 192.168.214.0/24 is split with VLSM for these LANs: A: 12 hosts, B: 25 hosts, C: 21 hosts, D: 5 hosts, E: 51 hosts. Subnets are allocated from .0 upwards, the LAN with the most hosts first, each with the smallest subnet that fits. What is the fourth octet x of the network address of LAN A?

A: 12B: 25C: 21D: 5E: 51
x =
