6.Hard

The network 192.168.11.0/24 is split with VLSM for these LANs: A: 33 hosts, B: 7 hosts, C: 11 hosts, D: 20 hosts, E: 3 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 B?
