Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 29. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 17. So, we're going to take the number 29 and add it to itself 17 times.
Step 1: 0 + 29 = 29
Step 2: 29 + 29 = 58
Step 3: 58 + 29 = 87
Step 4: 87 + 29 = 116
Step 5: 116 + 29 = 145
Step 6: 145 + 29 = 174
Step 7: 174 + 29 = 203
Step 8: 203 + 29 = 232
Step 9: 232 + 29 = 261
Step 10: 261 + 29 = 290
Step 11: 290 + 29 = 319
Step 12: 319 + 29 = 348
Step 13: 348 + 29 = 377
Step 14: 377 + 29 = 406
Step 15: 406 + 29 = 435
Step 16: 435 + 29 = 464
Step 17: 464 + 29 = 493

So, 29*17 = 493
