Solution

The correct option is D 260064

We can make use of distributiv law of multiplication over addition to simplify our calculation. The law states that:
a × ( b + c ) = a × b + a × c

The expression can be rewritten as:
258 × (1000 + 8)
= ( 258 × 1000) + (258 × 8) (using distributive property)
= 258000 + 2064
= 260064

Thus, option 'd' is the correct answer.
