OK, let's crack this. We're given 26 and our task is to multiply it by 57. Essentially, we'll be adding 26 to itself 57 times.
Step 1: 0 + 26 = 26
Step 2: 26 + 26 = 52
Step 3: 52 + 26 = 78
Step 4: 78 + 26 = 104
Step 5: 104 + 26 = 130
Step 6: 130 + 26 = 156
Step 7: 156 + 26 = 182
Step 8: 182 + 26 = 208
Step 9: 208 + 26 = 234
Step 10: 234 + 26 = 260
Step 11: 260 + 26 = 286
Step 12: 286 + 26 = 312
Step 13: 312 + 26 = 338
Step 14: 338 + 26 = 364
Step 15: 364 + 26 = 390
Step 16: 390 + 26 = 416
Step 17: 416 + 26 = 442
Step 18: 442 + 26 = 468
Step 19: 468 + 26 = 494
Step 20: 494 + 26 = 520
Step 21: 520 + 26 = 546
Step 22: 546 + 26 = 572
Step 23: 572 + 26 = 598
Step 24: 598 + 26 = 624
Step 25: 624 + 26 = 650
Step 26: 650 + 26 = 676
Step 27: 676 + 26 = 702
Step 28: 702 + 26 = 728
Step 29: 728 + 26 = 754
Step 30: 754 + 26 = 780
Step 31: 780 + 26 = 806
Step 32: 806 + 26 = 832
Step 33: 832 + 26 = 858
Step 34: 858 + 26 = 884
Step 35: 884 + 26 = 910
Step 36: 910 + 26 = 936
Step 37: 936 + 26 = 962
Step 38: 962 + 26 = 988
Step 39: 988 + 26 = 1014
Step 40: 1014 + 26 = 1040
Step 41: 1040 + 26 = 1066
Step 42: 1066 + 26 = 1092
Step 43: 1092 + 26 = 1118
Step 44: 1118 + 26 = 1144
Step 45: 1144 + 26 = 1170
Step 46: 1170 + 26 = 1196
Step 47: 1196 + 26 = 1222
Step 48: 1222 + 26 = 1248
Step 49: 1248 + 26 = 1274
Step 50: 1274 + 26 = 1300
Step 51: 1300 + 26 = 1326
Step 52: 1326 + 26 = 1352
Step 53: 1352 + 26 = 1378
Step 54: 1378 + 26 = 1404
Step 55: 1404 + 26 = 1430
Step 56: 1430 + 26 = 1456
Step 57: 1456 + 26 = 1482

So, 26*57 = 1482
