A.
192.168.1.64/26

B.
192.168.1.56/26

C.
192.168.1.56/27

D.
192.168.1.64/27

Explanation:
A subnet mask of 255.255.255.192 (/26) will be needed to support 60 hosts. Option B will allow
for this number of hosts, and the next available IP subnet in the 192.168.1.0 subnet that is not
already used in the network is 192.168.1.64.
