OK, let's work through this together. We're starting with 659 and we're going to multiply it by 12, which means we add 659 to itself 12 times.
Step 1: 0 + 659 = 659
Step 2: 659 + 659 = 1318
Step 3: 1318 + 659 = 1977
Step 4: 1977 + 659 = 2636
Step 5: 2636 + 659 = 3295
Step 6: 3295 + 659 = 3954
Step 7: 3954 + 659 = 4613
Step 8: 4613 + 659 = 5272
Step 9: 5272 + 659 = 5931
Step 10: 5931 + 659 = 6590
Step 11: 6590 + 659 = 7249
Step 12: 7249 + 659 = 7908

So, 659*12 = 7908
