A) (Sentence 2) The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.

This is the sentence that has a missing necessary comma. Another comma should have been placed after the word Hilo and before was.

The commas in this sentence enclosed nonessential information.

<span>The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo, was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.
</span>
Nonessential information means that if the said phrase is deleted from the sentence, then the sentence would still convey the same message.
<span>
The freighter Florentine was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.</span>
