class A 126
class B 16382
class c 2097150
so ans is 126+16382+2097150 = 2113658

First octet

Class A : 0 to 127 = (128) - 2 = 126 (1st octet).
Class B : 128 to 191 = (64 *256) - 2 = 16382 (1st octet * 2nd octet).
Class C : 192 to 223 = (32 * 256 * 256) - 2 = 2097150 (1st octet * 2nd octet * 3rd octet).

Not clear to me.

Why 126 is not multiplied by 256 as it is the 1st octet?

And also for Class B and C 1st octets.
