The result of the sum has come out correct.

Forming Perfect Tenses

Use 'salido' with a form of the verb 'haber' (like 'he,' 'has,' 'ha') to talk about actions completed in the past: 'Ella ha salido' (She has left).

Mixing Past Tenses

Mistake: “No está salido.”

Correction: Ha salido. (The verb 'salir' typically uses 'haber' to form compound tenses, not 'estar'.)

Outcome vs. Departure

Learners often confuse 'resultó' (outcome) with 'salido' (departed/produced). Remember that 'resultó' describes how something turned out, while 'salido' often implies movement away from a place or the product of a process like a calculation.
