Let's roll up our sleeves and solve this. We have 174 and we're going to multiply it by 27, essentially adding 174 to itself 27 times.
Step 1: 0 + 174 = 174
Step 2: 174 + 174 = 348
Step 3: 348 + 174 = 522
Step 4: 522 + 174 = 696
Step 5: 696 + 174 = 870
Step 6: 870 + 174 = 1044
Step 7: 1044 + 174 = 1218
Step 8: 1218 + 174 = 1392
Step 9: 1392 + 174 = 1566
Step 10: 1566 + 174 = 1740
Step 11: 1740 + 174 = 1914
Step 12: 1914 + 174 = 2088
Step 13: 2088 + 174 = 2262
Step 14: 2262 + 174 = 2436
Step 15: 2436 + 174 = 2610
Step 16: 2610 + 174 = 2784
Step 17: 2784 + 174 = 2958
Step 18: 2958 + 174 = 3132
Step 19: 3132 + 174 = 3306
Step 20: 3306 + 174 = 3480
Step 21: 3480 + 174 = 3654
Step 22: 3654 + 174 = 3828
Step 23: 3828 + 174 = 4002
Step 24: 4002 + 174 = 4176
Step 25: 4176 + 174 = 4350
Step 26: 4350 + 174 = 4524
Step 27: 4524 + 174 = 4698

So, 174*27 = 4698
