Let's get this math done. We have 274 and we're going to multiply it by 12. This is the same as taking 274 and adding it to itself 12 times.
Step 1: 0 + 274 = 274
Step 2: 274 + 274 = 548
Step 3: 548 + 274 = 822
Step 4: 822 + 274 = 1096
Step 5: 1096 + 274 = 1370
Step 6: 1370 + 274 = 1644
Step 7: 1644 + 274 = 1918
Step 8: 1918 + 274 = 2192
Step 9: 2192 + 274 = 2466
Step 10: 2466 + 274 = 2740
Step 11: 2740 + 274 = 3014
Step 12: 3014 + 274 = 3288

So, 274*12 = 3288
