Mark the block as you would mark regularly. Then to 10 spaces you can do
this:

C-u 1 0 C-x TAB

To figure out the number of spaces to add, you mentally the subtract the
current column with the target column. Turn on M-x column-number-mode if
you need to to figure out what column you are on.

or 

Refer the last paragraph in:

(info "(emacs) Indentation Commands")

or 

Launch the info manual with:       C-h r                
Visit the needed index entry with: i indent-rigidly
