The IP address given is: 220.8.7.0 and this is belongs to Class C.
In Class C addressing, 24 bits will be used as network bits and 8 bits will be used as host bits.
But the subnet mask given is: 255.255.255.240 which is nothing but /28. That means, 24 network bits, 4 subnet bits and 4 host bits.
The number of IP addresses (Num of hosts) per subnet is: 4 host bits so = 16 IP addresses per subnet.
The number of subnets with the same mask: 4 subnet bits
So, = 16 subnets
