A host with IPv$4$ address $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}55/24$ is sending a packet to another host with the IPv$4$ address: $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}100/24.$ Assume all the appropriate routes and networking equipment$$are in place and correctly configured.

In making its "packet forwarding decision" the sending host will forward the packet:

directly to the $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}100/24$ host

directly to the router $($default gateway$)$ of the $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}0/24$ network

directly to the router $($default gateway$)$ of the $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}0/24$ network

nowhere $($i$.$e$.$ it will drop the packet$)$
