I'm not so sure about that. Doesn't the network address and broadcast address take up two of those addresses? I'm leaning towards A) 126.

Hmm, I think the answer is C) 128. That's the number of available host addresses in a /24 subnet, right?

So that leaves us with 254 usable IP addresses for host devices. The answer should be C) 128.

I agree with Tuyet. With a /24 subnet mask, there are 256 total IP addresses, but 2 are reserved for network and broadcast addresses.
