Let's get this math done. We have 973 and we're going to multiply it by 7. This is the same as taking 973 and adding it to itself 7 times.
Step 1: 0 + 973 = 973
Step 2: 973 + 973 = 1946
Step 3: 1946 + 973 = 2919
Step 4: 2919 + 973 = 3892
Step 5: 3892 + 973 = 4865
Step 6: 4865 + 973 = 5838
Step 7: 5838 + 973 = 6811

So, 973*7 = 6811
