If an ISP assigned you a /28 IPv4 address block, how many computers could you assign an address?

What will be an ideal response?

When an organization is assigned /28 CIDR address, it means 28 bits out of 32 bits are fixed,
so 32-28 = 4 bits available for user space. So number of users 2 4 -2 = 4, since the all 0s and all 1s
address are having special use and can’t be assigned to a user.
