What is the meaning of '내본' in these sentences?
I actually didn't quite get the meaning of '내본' in these two sentences.

"그렇게 결말을 내 본 것은...."

"그렇게 결말을 내본 게...."

I want to know whether "내본" here comes from the word "내보내다" or "내보" or maybe any other words that I don't know.

Answer

내본 is wrong spacing. 내 본 is correct.
It is not related with "내보내다"

내 본 is composed of
내(다) + 어 보다 + ㄴ
내다 means "make,bring to"
어 보다 means "try to do something"
ㄴ is a connecting particle of past tense.

결말을 내 보다 means "try to bring to a settlement"

그렇게 결말을 내 본 것은 means
that (someone) have brought to a settlement like that

ex)
우리가 그렇게 결말을 내 본 것은 처음이었다.
It was the first time that we have brought to a settlement like that.
