We start with the equation:

\[ 632 \times 29 = 5688. \]

To find the missing value, we need to find the correct product of 632 and 29 first.

Calculating \( 632 \times 29 \):

\[
632 \times 29 = 18328.
\]

Now we see that:

\[
18328 = 5688 + \text{question mark}.
\]

To find the value of the question mark, we calculate:

\[
\text{question mark} = 18328 - 5688.
\]

Now performing the subtraction:

\[
18328 - 5688 = 12740.
\]

However, 12740 is not among the options provided. Let's double-check the arithmetic:

Breaking it down:

\[
18328 - 5688 = 18328 - 5688 = 18328 - 5680 - 8 = 18328 - 5680 = 12648
\]
Adding back 8, we have 12648 + 8 = 12656.

That's a miscalculation. Let’s go back and calculate the original multiplication correctly.

First, we verify the multiplication step-by-step:

\[
632 \times 29 = 632 \times (30 - 1) = 632 \times 30 - 632.
\]
Calculating \( 632 \times 30 \):

\[
632 \times 30 = 18960.
\]

Then we calculate \( 632 \):

\[
632 \times 1 = 632.
\]

So,

\[
632 \times 29 = 18960 - 632 = 18328.
\]

Now we substitute \( 18328 \):

\[
18328 = 5688 + \text{question mark}.
\]

Thus,

\[
\text{question mark} = 18328 - 5688 = 12640.
\]

Checking the subtraction one last time:

- Subtract \( 5688 \) from \( 18328 \).

Now we can compare this with the multiple-choice answers provided to find:

None match.

So, let's revisit the values listed in the options:

11,376, 12,540, 12,640, 18,328.

The closest full obtained number is likely, but this process yields us the mismatched subtractions; checking proportion, we find:

Final Answer: **12,640** is likely the value listed correctly possibly from rounding or estimating during increments.

Finding the answer will confirm the choice might repeat to add or split as required.

However, \( \text{question mark} => 12740 \).

**Since the provided answers seem to tally...** Going with prolonged again, we see:

The missing value is **12,640** from the checklist.
