When multiplying hexadecimal numbers, we follow the same rules as multiplying decimal numbers. We multiply each digit of the second number with the first number and add them up at the respective positions. The last digit of the result goes in the units' place, and any carryover goes to the next position. In this case, the last digits of both numbers are 2, and multiplication will result in 4. There is no carryover. Therefore, the correct answer will have 7 in the third-last position (as 8 multiplied by 2 gives 16, which leaves 6 in that position and carryover 1 to the next digit). Only option B satisfies this condition. To multiply hexadecimal numbers, we follow the same steps as in decimal multiplication. Multiply the rightmost (least significant) digit of the second number by each digit of the first number and write the result under each digit. Then add up all the rows to get the final product. In this case, we get the following:
```
                    11ebbb8f_b97c_e70f_bcf2_2f89541f6f0a
                *                      2
                --------------------------------------
                                 1D577177F2
```
Therefore, the correct answer is B as it represents the correct product.
