A subnet mask of /25 corresponds to 255.255.255.128.

Here's a brief explanation of how this works:

  • The "/25" notation indicates that the first 25 bits of the subnet mask are set to '1', while the remaining bits (32 - 25 = 7 bits) are set to '0'.
  • In decimal representation, this translates to:
    • 255 (11111111) for the first 24 bits,
    • 128 (10000000) for the 25th bit,
    • 0 for the remaining bits.

Thus, the answer is 255.255.255.128.
