OK, let's crack this. We're given 973 and our task is to multiply it by 11. Essentially, we'll be adding 973 to itself 11 times.
Step 1: 0 + 973 = 973
Step 2: 973 + 973 = 1946
Step 3: 1946 + 973 = 2919
Step 4: 2919 + 973 = 3892
Step 5: 3892 + 973 = 4865
Step 6: 4865 + 973 = 5838
Step 7: 5838 + 973 = 6811
Step 8: 6811 + 973 = 7784
Step 9: 7784 + 973 = 8757
Step 10: 8757 + 973 = 9730
Step 11: 9730 + 973 = 10703

So, 973*11 = 10703
