OK, let's work through this together. We're starting with 114 and we're going to multiply it by 9, which means we add 114 to itself 9 times.
Step 1: 0 + 114 = 114
Step 2: 114 + 114 = 228
Step 3: 228 + 114 = 342
Step 4: 342 + 114 = 456
Step 5: 456 + 114 = 570
Step 6: 570 + 114 = 684
Step 7: 684 + 114 = 798
Step 8: 798 + 114 = 912
Step 9: 912 + 114 = 1026

So, 114*9 = 1026
