Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 988. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 11. So, we're going to take the number 988 and add it to itself 11 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

So, 988*11 = 10868
