Let's get this math done. We have 146 and we're going to multiply it by 9. This is the same as taking 146 and adding it to itself 9 times.
Step 1: 0 + 146 = 146
Step 2: 146 + 146 = 292
Step 3: 292 + 146 = 438
Step 4: 438 + 146 = 584
Step 5: 584 + 146 = 730
Step 6: 730 + 146 = 876
Step 7: 876 + 146 = 1022
Step 8: 1022 + 146 = 1168
Step 9: 1168 + 146 = 1314

So, 146*9 = 1314
