If a packet arrives for network 4 with IP 140.24.7.200, it will be routed correctly from interface m1.
If a packet arrives for network 4 with IP 140.24.7.200, it will be routed correctly from interface m1.
If a /24 subnet mask was before a /26 subnet mask in the routing table, a packet for network 4 with IP 140.24.7.200 would be sent back to the sender through m0.
