The way I remember it is simply this:
A RIPv1 router understands host routes, routes that match its interface
mask, and classful routes. Anything else is probably going to the bit
bucket.
One tends to study a lot of weird situations for the lab exam but in the
real world the best idea is to stick with a common subnet mask for every
device on the RIPv1 network.
