OK, let's crack this. We're given 399 and our task is to multiply it by 15. Essentially, we'll be adding 399 to itself 15 times.
Step 1: 0 + 399 = 399
Step 2: 399 + 399 = 798
Step 3: 798 + 399 = 1197
Step 4: 1197 + 399 = 1596
Step 5: 1596 + 399 = 1995
Step 6: 1995 + 399 = 2394
Step 7: 2394 + 399 = 2793
Step 8: 2793 + 399 = 3192
Step 9: 3192 + 399 = 3591
Step 10: 3591 + 399 = 3990
Step 11: 3990 + 399 = 4389
Step 12: 4389 + 399 = 4788
Step 13: 4788 + 399 = 5187
Step 14: 5187 + 399 = 5586
Step 15: 5586 + 399 = 5985

So, 399*15 = 5985
