Let's get this math done. We have 97 and we're going to multiply it by 16. This is the same as taking 97 and adding it to itself 16 times.
Step 1: 0 + 97 = 97
Step 2: 97 + 97 = 194
Step 3: 194 + 97 = 291
Step 4: 291 + 97 = 388
Step 5: 388 + 97 = 485
Step 6: 485 + 97 = 582
Step 7: 582 + 97 = 679
Step 8: 679 + 97 = 776
Step 9: 776 + 97 = 873
Step 10: 873 + 97 = 970
Step 11: 970 + 97 = 1067
Step 12: 1067 + 97 = 1164
Step 13: 1164 + 97 = 1261
Step 14: 1261 + 97 = 1358
Step 15: 1358 + 97 = 1455
Step 16: 1455 + 97 = 1552

So, 97*16 = 1552
