How is that three 1's coming in the end?

For 25 hosts you need minimum 5 bit i.e 2^5 = 32.

Therefore, the 5 bit of the last octet in ip address would be reserved for host and the remaining would act as subnet.

So, in bit wise it would be 11111111.11111111.11111111.111*****
Which is 255.255.255.224

How it is possible? What is the logic behind this? Can anyone explain this? This kind of questions are frequently asking in gate.
