We start by checking the remainders upon division by 9.

**Step 1. Calculate the remainder (casting out nines) for each addend.**

- For $$32{,}211$$:  
  Sum of digits: $$3+2+2+1+1=9$$.  
  Since $$9$$ is divisible by 9, we say $$32{,}211 \equiv 0 \pmod{9}$$.

- For $$7{,}514$$:  
  Sum of digits: $$7+5+1+4=17$$.  
  Then, $$17 \equiv 8 \pmod{9}$$.

- For $$69{,}338$$:  
  Sum of digits: $$6+9+3+3+8=29$$.  
  Then, $$29-27=2$$, so $$29 \equiv 2 \pmod{9}$$.

**Step 2. Sum the remainders of the addends.**

$$
0 + 8 + 2 = 10 \quad \text{and} \quad 10 \equiv 1 \pmod{9}.
$$

Thus, the correct result of the sum should have a remainder of $$1$$ when divided by $$9$$.

**Step 3. Check the provided sum $$109{,}163$$.**

- For $$109{,}163$$:  
  Sum of digits: $$1+0+9+1+6+3=20$$.  
  Then, $$20-18=2$$, so $$109{,}163 \equiv 2 \pmod{9}$$.

Since $$2 \neq 1$$, the provided sum fails the casting out nines test.

**Step 4. Find the correct sum.**

First, add the numbers:
$$
32{,}211 + 7{,}514 = 39{,}725.
$$
Then,
$$
39{,}725 + 69{,}338 = 109{,}063.
$$

Check $$109{,}063$$ by summing its digits:
$$
1+0+9+0+6+3=19 \quad \text{and} \quad 19-18=1,
$$
so $$109{,}063 \equiv 1 \pmod{9}$$, which agrees with our expected remainder.

**Final Answer for (a):**

B. Casting out nines shows there is an error. The given answer has a remainder of $$2$$, but casting out nines gives a remainder of $$1$$. The correct answer is $$109{,}063$$.
The calculation $$32{,}211 + 7{,}514 + 69{,}338 = 109{,}163$$ has an error based on casting out nines. The given answer has a remainder of 2, but casting out nines gives a remainder of 1. The correct sum is $$109{,}063$$.
