OK, let's crack this. We're given 254 and our task is to multiply it by 11. Essentially, we'll be adding 254 to itself 11 times.
Step 1: 0 + 254 = 254
Step 2: 254 + 254 = 508
Step 3: 508 + 254 = 762
Step 4: 762 + 254 = 1016
Step 5: 1016 + 254 = 1270
Step 6: 1270 + 254 = 1524
Step 7: 1524 + 254 = 1778
Step 8: 1778 + 254 = 2032
Step 9: 2032 + 254 = 2286
Step 10: 2286 + 254 = 2540
Step 11: 2540 + 254 = 2794

So, 254*11 = 2794
