Remember that when given a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, that's equivalent
to a class C. A class B would have a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. I know
you probably relied on the IP to determine the Class but you must realize
that this is a classless IP. It's better to detemine the class by the
subnet mask. When finally realizing that, it'll be easy to determine the
broadcast IP of 155.44.12.255.
