Question relating to IP

I belong to network 293.200.148.0/22. Is it possible to have such a network address?

If I send a ping to 293.200.151.101/22. Is it going through my default gateway?

what is the size of my network? and is it a subnet?

My guess is no, no, no, and 1024? is it correct??

Yes, I suppose.
It's a subnet.

ip addresses are 4 octets. 1111111 is 255 so max is 255.255.255.255 (actually for all intents and purposes of net+ it stops at 223.255.255.255).

Ping isnt going anywhere. if you had a valid ip address then yes it would because the /22 is the subnet and the subnet you are pinging is different from your own, therefore it has to go through the gateway

32-22=10 so 2^10 = 1024 = size

im tired and guessing at this point so someone check me, but i think its right.

No.

Well, since this nonsensical address is at least 36 bits long to represent the value "293" (four groups of nine bits each), you have at least 36-22 =14 host bits. That's approximately ~16,000 hosts.

Right on.

8 bits is the maximum u can have per octet. u have to see this in binary to understand why ip address dont have decimal numbers bigger than 255.
