Drake's error in finding the sum of 234 and 75 to be 984 likely stems from:
**Drake did not align the digits by their place value when he set up the problem.**
When adding numbers, it is crucial to line up the digits based on their place values (ones, tens, hundreds) to ensure the addition is done correctly. If he did not do that, it could easily lead to an incorrect result like 984.
