Sure thing, let's get straight to it. We start with 679 and we're going to multiply it by 8, which means adding 679 to itself 8 times.
Step 1: 0 + 679 = 679
Step 2: 679 + 679 = 1358
Step 3: 1358 + 679 = 2037
Step 4: 2037 + 679 = 2716
Step 5: 2716 + 679 = 3395
Step 6: 3395 + 679 = 4074
Step 7: 4074 + 679 = 4753
Step 8: 4753 + 679 = 5432

So, 679*8 = 5432
