Hi Stephen!
In addition to what Ronnie suggested, I would recommend watching the Networkchuck Youtube series "You Suck at Subnetting". It goes through all of these skills:

Hope this helps!

Howdy @Stephen-Rodriguez !
@Ronnie-Wong is being super humble here. He and Daniel do an amazing job of teaching subnetting, some of the best training on this subject in the world. Not kidding. I used to teach the ICND course for Cisco for years and I would have been pointing my students to Ronnie's methods without a doubt.
Something to remember about Subnetting is that it's difficult if you don't keep practicing and learning the why behind the how. So do a few subnetting questions every day the week or two before any exam that requires it. Cheers!

There's also a subnetting master class by, I believe, Wendell Odom, that is fantastic. You might be able to find it floating around on YouTube with some searching. I know O'Reilly has the master class, but a subscription is $49/month. Another great resource is Kevin Wallace. His videos on networking are on his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@kwallaceccie. He's also got super affordable video courses on Udemy, like the CCST course. I bought it for $12.99.
