Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 654. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 16. So, we're going to take the number 654 and add it to itself 16 times.
Step 1: 0 + 654 = 654
Step 2: 654 + 654 = 1308
Step 3: 1308 + 654 = 1962
Step 4: 1962 + 654 = 2616
Step 5: 2616 + 654 = 3270
Step 6: 3270 + 654 = 3924
Step 7: 3924 + 654 = 4578
Step 8: 4578 + 654 = 5232
Step 9: 5232 + 654 = 5886
Step 10: 5886 + 654 = 6540
Step 11: 6540 + 654 = 7194
Step 12: 7194 + 654 = 7848
Step 13: 7848 + 654 = 8502
Step 14: 8502 + 654 = 9156
Step 15: 9156 + 654 = 9810
Step 16: 9810 + 654 = 10464

So, 654*16 = 10464
