Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator needs to create two subnetworks from 10.0.0.0/8 for a router running RIPv2. The admin subnet requires 120 hosts and the Sales subnet requires 58 hosts.

The subnets overlap and will be rejected by the router.
- D.
The router will support the addressing scheme.
