Multicast IP addresses fall within the range of 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.

Based on the options provided:

- 221.22.20.2 - Not a multicast address (it's a unicast address)
- 223.3.40.2 - This is a multicast address (falls within the range)
- 238.20.80.4 - This is a multicast address (falls within the range)
- 240.34.22.12 - Not a multicast address (it's generally reserved for future use)

Therefore, the correct multicast addresses from the list are **223.3.40.2** and **238.20.80.4**. If you need just one answer, either of these can be accepted, but for direct selection, **223.3.40.2** is the first option available that is a multicast address.
