Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 16. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 12. So, we're going to take the number 16 and add it to itself 12 times.
Step 1: 0 + 16 = 16
Step 2: 16 + 16 = 32
Step 3: 32 + 16 = 48
Step 4: 48 + 16 = 64
Step 5: 64 + 16 = 80
Step 6: 80 + 16 = 96
Step 7: 96 + 16 = 112
Step 8: 112 + 16 = 128
Step 9: 128 + 16 = 144
Step 10: 144 + 16 = 160
Step 11: 160 + 16 = 176
Step 12: 176 + 16 = 192

So, 16*12 = 192
