Let's roll up our sleeves and solve this. We have 988 and we're going to multiply it by 14, essentially adding 988 to itself 14 times.
Step 1: 0 + 988 = 988
Step 2: 988 + 988 = 1976
Step 3: 1976 + 988 = 2964
Step 4: 2964 + 988 = 3952
Step 5: 3952 + 988 = 4940
Step 6: 4940 + 988 = 5928
Step 7: 5928 + 988 = 6916
Step 8: 6916 + 988 = 7904
Step 9: 7904 + 988 = 8892
Step 10: 8892 + 988 = 9880
Step 11: 9880 + 988 = 10868
Step 12: 10868 + 988 = 11856
Step 13: 11856 + 988 = 12844
Step 14: 12844 + 988 = 13832

So, 988*14 = 13832
