how many addresses will be required in the subnet and justify it.

Each subnetwork could potentially support up to 30 host addresses. Since you now have
four bits to make subnets with, you only have four bits left for host addresses. So in this case
you can have up to 16 subnets, each of which can have up to 16 host addresses (14 of
which can be assigned to devices

What is subnet

A subnet, or subnetwork, is a segmented piece of a larger network. More


specifically, subnets are a logical partition of an IP network into multiple, smaller
network segments. The Internet Protocol (IP) is the method for sending data from
one computer to another over the internet. Each computer, or host, on the
internet has at least one IP address as a unique identifier.
A subnetwork or subnet is a logical subdivision of an IP network.[1]:1,16 The practice of dividing a network
into two or more networks is called subnetting.

Traffic is exchanged between subnetworks through routers when the routing prefixes of the source address
and the destination address differ. A router serves as a logical or physical boundary between the subnets.

What is HLD and LLD in network design?


HLD -- High Level Design (HLD) is the overall system design - covering the system architecture and
database design. 
LLD -- Low Level Design (LLD) is like detailing the HLD. It defines the actual logic for each and every
component of the system
