Let's roll up our sleeves and solve this. We have 196 and we're going to multiply it by 7, essentially adding 196 to itself 7 times.
Step 1: 0 + 196 = 196
Step 2: 196 + 196 = 392
Step 3: 392 + 196 = 588
Step 4: 588 + 196 = 784
Step 5: 784 + 196 = 980
Step 6: 980 + 196 = 1176
Step 7: 1176 + 196 = 1372

So, 196*7 = 1372
