Let's roll up our sleeves and solve this. We have 33 and we're going to multiply it by 38, essentially adding 33 to itself 38 times.
Step 1: 0 + 33 = 33
Step 2: 33 + 33 = 66
Step 3: 66 + 33 = 99
Step 4: 99 + 33 = 132
Step 5: 132 + 33 = 165
Step 6: 165 + 33 = 198
Step 7: 198 + 33 = 231
Step 8: 231 + 33 = 264
Step 9: 264 + 33 = 297
Step 10: 297 + 33 = 330
Step 11: 330 + 33 = 363
Step 12: 363 + 33 = 396
Step 13: 396 + 33 = 429
Step 14: 429 + 33 = 462
Step 15: 462 + 33 = 495
Step 16: 495 + 33 = 528
Step 17: 528 + 33 = 561
Step 18: 561 + 33 = 594
Step 19: 594 + 33 = 627
Step 20: 627 + 33 = 660
Step 21: 660 + 33 = 693
Step 22: 693 + 33 = 726
Step 23: 726 + 33 = 759
Step 24: 759 + 33 = 792
Step 25: 792 + 33 = 825
Step 26: 825 + 33 = 858
Step 27: 858 + 33 = 891
Step 28: 891 + 33 = 924
Step 29: 924 + 33 = 957
Step 30: 957 + 33 = 990
Step 31: 990 + 33 = 1023
Step 32: 1023 + 33 = 1056
Step 33: 1056 + 33 = 1089
Step 34: 1089 + 33 = 1122
Step 35: 1122 + 33 = 1155
Step 36: 1155 + 33 = 1188
Step 37: 1188 + 33 = 1221
Step 38: 1221 + 33 = 1254

So, 33*38 = 1254
