Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 186. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 9. So, we're going to take the number 186 and add it to itself 9 times.
Step 1: 0 + 186 = 186
Step 2: 186 + 186 = 372
Step 3: 372 + 186 = 558
Step 4: 558 + 186 = 744
Step 5: 744 + 186 = 930
Step 6: 930 + 186 = 1116
Step 7: 1116 + 186 = 1302
Step 8: 1302 + 186 = 1488
Step 9: 1488 + 186 = 1674

So, 186*9 = 1674
