Which of the following commands shows the number of hops from a computer to the specified destination?

IPCONFIG displays the local machine's IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and other adapter settings, and does not communicate with remote hosts or count hops.

NETSTAT displays active TCP/UDP connections, listening ports, and network statistics for the local machine and does not trace routes to remote destinations.

PING sends ICMP echo requests to test reachability and measure round-trip latency to a host but does not reveal intermediate hops or the total hop count along the path.

TRACERT works by sending ICMP echo requests with a Time-To-Live value that starts at 1 and increments by 1 for each probe, causing each router along the path to return a TTL Exceeded message, which TRACERT uses to display each hop's IP address, hostname, and round-trip time, giving a complete hop count to the destination.
