Explanation:

Step1: Calculate product of 22 and 49

Break 49 into $50-1$, use distributive property:
$22 \times 49 = 22 \times (50 - 1) = 22 \times 50 - 22 \times 1$

Step2: Compute individual terms

$22 \times 50 = 1100$, $22 \times 1 = 22$

Step3: Subtract to find result

$1100 - 22 = 1078$

Answer:

B. (22)(49) = 1078
