Lowest 3rd octet will give the most networks. 255.255.0.0 would give the most, but it isn't an option. The only parameter is max networks for future growth. If they made 255.255.0.0 an option, you'd realize this and reread the question.
You got conned into trying to make the minimum # of networks to make it work. Different question than the one asked.
