Yes, as the previous poster stated this is an extremely old way of
determining the number of subnets.
Good training materials in recent years stated things such as "assume the
command ip subnet zero has been issued", or very clearly that you were to
calculate the number of "ususable subnets, as opposed to the total number of
subnets".
However, the concept of "useable" v. "total" subnets has now been dropped
from all new (2007) Cisco branded training material and certs. If you are
using training resources that include questions with the above answers it is
now out of date and should discarded.
