Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 496. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 37. So, we're going to take the number 496 and add it to itself 37 times.
Step 1: 0 + 496 = 496
Step 2: 496 + 496 = 992
Step 3: 992 + 496 = 1488
Step 4: 1488 + 496 = 1984
Step 5: 1984 + 496 = 2480
Step 6: 2480 + 496 = 2976
Step 7: 2976 + 496 = 3472
Step 8: 3472 + 496 = 3968
Step 9: 3968 + 496 = 4464
Step 10: 4464 + 496 = 4960
Step 11: 4960 + 496 = 5456
Step 12: 5456 + 496 = 5952
Step 13: 5952 + 496 = 6448
Step 14: 6448 + 496 = 6944
Step 15: 6944 + 496 = 7440
Step 16: 7440 + 496 = 7936
Step 17: 7936 + 496 = 8432
Step 18: 8432 + 496 = 8928
Step 19: 8928 + 496 = 9424
Step 20: 9424 + 496 = 9920
Step 21: 9920 + 496 = 10416
Step 22: 10416 + 496 = 10912
Step 23: 10912 + 496 = 11408
Step 24: 11408 + 496 = 11904
Step 25: 11904 + 496 = 12400
Step 26: 12400 + 496 = 12896
Step 27: 12896 + 496 = 13392
Step 28: 13392 + 496 = 13888
Step 29: 13888 + 496 = 14384
Step 30: 14384 + 496 = 14880
Step 31: 14880 + 496 = 15376
Step 32: 15376 + 496 = 15872
Step 33: 15872 + 496 = 16368
Step 34: 16368 + 496 = 16864
Step 35: 16864 + 496 = 17360
Step 36: 17360 + 496 = 17856
Step 37: 17856 + 496 = 18352

So, 496*37 = 18352
