Sure thing, let's get straight to it. We start with 999 and we're going to multiply it by 24, which means adding 999 to itself 24 times.
Step 1: 0 + 999 = 999
Step 2: 999 + 999 = 1998
Step 3: 1998 + 999 = 2997
Step 4: 2997 + 999 = 3996
Step 5: 3996 + 999 = 4995
Step 6: 4995 + 999 = 5994
Step 7: 5994 + 999 = 6993
Step 8: 6993 + 999 = 7992
Step 9: 7992 + 999 = 8991
Step 10: 8991 + 999 = 9990
Step 11: 9990 + 999 = 10989
Step 12: 10989 + 999 = 11988
Step 13: 11988 + 999 = 12987
Step 14: 12987 + 999 = 13986
Step 15: 13986 + 999 = 14985
Step 16: 14985 + 999 = 15984
Step 17: 15984 + 999 = 16983
Step 18: 16983 + 999 = 17982
Step 19: 17982 + 999 = 18981
Step 20: 18981 + 999 = 19980
Step 21: 19980 + 999 = 20979
Step 22: 20979 + 999 = 21978
Step 23: 21978 + 999 = 22977
Step 24: 22977 + 999 = 23976

So, 999*24 = 23976
