Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 896. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 8. So, we're going to take the number 896 and add it to itself 8 times.
Step 1: 0 + 896 = 896
Step 2: 896 + 896 = 1792
Step 3: 1792 + 896 = 2688
Step 4: 2688 + 896 = 3584
Step 5: 3584 + 896 = 4480
Step 6: 4480 + 896 = 5376
Step 7: 5376 + 896 = 6272
Step 8: 6272 + 896 = 7168

So, 896*8 = 7168
