OK, let's crack this. We're given 976 and our task is to multiply it by 8. Essentially, we'll be adding 976 to itself 8 times.
Step 1: 0 + 976 = 976
Step 2: 976 + 976 = 1952
Step 3: 1952 + 976 = 2928
Step 4: 2928 + 976 = 3904
Step 5: 3904 + 976 = 4880
Step 6: 4880 + 976 = 5856
Step 7: 5856 + 976 = 6832
Step 8: 6832 + 976 = 7808

So, 976*8 = 7808
