I tried to over-complicate this before I realized the solution was pretty simple!

I just duplicated each value by its number (so 4 has 4 rows, 10 has 10 rows, etc.) and then used a MultiRowFormula to multiply the RowCount by the previous row's value.

The filter and select are just to clean up the output.

Although this challenge was pretty simple, I think it does a great job at showcasing some of the computational abilities of Alteryx. Great intro to macros for beginners
