Sure thing, let's get straight to it. We start with 983 and we're going to multiply it by 6, which means adding 983 to itself 6 times.
Step 1: 0 + 983 = 983
Step 2: 983 + 983 = 1966
Step 3: 1966 + 983 = 2949
Step 4: 2949 + 983 = 3932
Step 5: 3932 + 983 = 4915
Step 6: 4915 + 983 = 5898

So, 983*6 = 5898
