Explanation:

Step1: Identify catalog sales for each country

We need to sum the number of toys sold through catalogs in each country (Country A, Country B, Country C). From the table, the catalog sales are: Country A: 1,882; Country B: 516; Country C: 241.

Step2: Sum the catalog sales

To find the total number of toys sold through catalogs, we add these three values: \(1,882 + 516 + 241\).
First, add 1,882 and 516: \(1,882 + 516 = 2,398\).
Then, add the result to 241: \(2,398 + 241 = 2,639\). Wait, but looking at the "Total" row for Catalog, it's already given as 2,639. Alternatively, we can check the "Total" column for the Catalog row. The table has a "Total" row for each store type. For Catalog, the total is the sum of Country A, B, C. Let's verify: Country A (Catalog): 1,882; Country B (Catalog): 516; Country C (Catalog): 241. Sum: \(1882 + 516 = 2398\); \(2398 + 241 = 2639\).

Answer:

2639
