/10 subnet calculator (255.192.0.0)
A /10 prefix fixes the first 10 bits of the address, leaving 22 bits for hosts. That gives 4,194,304 addresses in the block.

Show the working
- Number of these subnets = 1
- Hosts you need to fit = 50
- prefix = 10 = 10
- host_bits = 32 - 10 = 22
- Total addresses in the block = 2^22 = 4 194 300
- Usable hosts per subnet = 10 >= 31 ? (10 == 31 ? 2 : 1) : 4 194 300 - 2 = 4 194 300
- mask_value = 2^32 - 2^22 = 4 290 770 000
- Mask octet 1 = floor(4 290 770 000 / 2^24) = 255
- Mask octet 2 = floor(4 290 770 000 / 2^16) % 256 = 192
- Mask octet 3 = floor(4 290 770 000 / 2^8) % 256 = 0
- Mask octet 4 = 4 290 770 000 % 256 = 0
- total_addresses = 4 194 300 * 1 = 4 194 300
- Usable hosts across all the blocks = 4 194 300 * 1 = 4 194 300
- Blocks needed for the hosts you listed = 4 194 300 > 0 ? ceil(50 / 4 194 300) : 0 = 1
- Spare addresses in one block = 4 194 300 - 50 = 4 194 250
- Utilisation of one block = 4 194 300 > 0 ? 50 / 4 194 300 * 100 : 0 = 0.001 192 09
- How many fit inside a /24 = 10 >= 24 ? 2^(10 - 24) : 0 = 0
Values are shown to six significant figures here; the arithmetic itself runs on exact fractions and is only rounded where a number is printed.

The formula
- host bits = 32 - prefix length
- total addresses = 2^host bits
- usable hosts = total - 2, reserving the network and broadcast addresses
- mask = 2^32 - 2^host bits, written as four octets
The two reserved addresses are the all-zeros network address and the all-ones broadcast address.
RFC 3021 makes a /31 usable as a two-address point-to-point link with no broadcast, and a /32 is a single host route. Both are special-cased here.
This is IPv4. IPv6 does not reserve a broadcast address, so an IPv6 prefix has 2^(128 - n) usable addresses.
