How do you convert a single octet within an IP address to binary?

• You take the decimals and then 8 bits, find the specific IP address octet that you are trying to convert, and follow the rules of converting decimal numbers to binary numbers starting from the left moving to the right

How do you find the network and host ID within an IP address?

• you can look at the subnet address, for example(255.255.0.0) (192.168.10.14/24) this tells us that 192.168 would be the network address, 10 would be the subnet address, 14 would be the host ID
