Is it possible to determine the netmask from 2 IP addresses?

Question

Computer networks

IP addresses of nodes from the same network are known. Is it possible to determine the network mask from them?

Answer 1

I live in apartment 14, my neighbor lives in apartment 32.
Question - how many apartments are there in the building?

Answer 2

By 2 addresses, you can determine the minimum possible mask so that these two addresses fall into the same network. The rest - no. Specify the exact netmask only if the two addresses are 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255

Answer 3

It would be possible to determine the mask if one of these addresses were broadcast, and the second one was the first,
which means that all addresses from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.255 have a mask of 255.255.0.0
