I'd keep the work YOU do to a minimum and simply respond with an email asking how .58x2000>1160 and let them find it. It's THEIR screwup, you're paid to review, not do the design.

Kudos! As others have stated, there's a whole number of reasons this could happen. You can either reject the submittals outright (and make the designer figure out where he/she went wrong), or spend the time to figure it out yourself. Either way, it's nice to see a plan reviewer pick-up on something like that.
