OK, let's crack this. We're given 231 and our task is to multiply it by 10. Essentially, we'll be adding 231 to itself 10 times.
Step 1: 0 + 231 = 231
Step 2: 231 + 231 = 462
Step 3: 462 + 231 = 693
Step 4: 693 + 231 = 924
Step 5: 924 + 231 = 1155
Step 6: 1155 + 231 = 1386
Step 7: 1386 + 231 = 1617
Step 8: 1617 + 231 = 1848
Step 9: 1848 + 231 = 2079
Step 10: 2079 + 231 = 2310

So, 231*10 = 2310
