Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 987. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 6. So, we're going to take the number 987 and add it to itself 6 times.
Step 1: 0 + 987 = 987
Step 2: 987 + 987 = 1974
Step 3: 1974 + 987 = 2961
Step 4: 2961 + 987 = 3948
Step 5: 3948 + 987 = 4935
Step 6: 4935 + 987 = 5922

So, 987*6 = 5922
