Yes, the correct answer is 255.255.252.0 as minimum 10 bits are required in host ID part to have at least 600 hosts.
(2^10-2=1022, 2^9 -2 =512 (does not satisfy 600 hosts).
6 bits in network ID makes a mask of 252 in third octet of class B.

But guys I have a doubt the method which you are using is for the given subnets not for the given hosts.
In question, there is 600 hosts, not 600 subnet.
Anyone, please clarify this.
