To check the calculation using casting out nines, first, sum the digits of the numbers involved. For \(394\), the digits sum to \(3 + 9 + 4 = 16\) which further simplifies to \(1 + 6 = 7\). For \(582\), the digits sum to \(5 + 8 + 2 = 15\) which simplifies to \(1 + 5 = 6\). Now, calculate the product’s digit sum \(229,408\): \(2 + 2 + 9 + 4 + 0 + 8 = 25\) which simplifies to \(2 + 5 = 7\). The combined remainder for the operands is \(7 \times 6 = 42\) which simplifies to \(4 + 2 = 6\). Now we see that \(7\) (from \(394\)) and \(6\) (from \(582\)) gives a product remainder of \(6\) but the computed answer gives \(7\), indicating an error in the calculation. So, the final options would appear like this: B. Casting out nines shows there is an error. The given answer has a remainder of \(7\), but casting out nines gives a remainder of \(6\). The correct answer is \(229,200\) (the correct product of \(394 \times 582\)).
