Work done is given by:

Work(W) = Force(F) x Displacement(s)

W = Fscosθ

Where θ is the angle between force and displacement.

From the question we have,
Force(F) = 12 N
Displacement(s) = 12 m
θ = 0 ° (Force and displacement happening in the same direction)

So, the work done is,
W = F × dcosθ 
W= 12×12× cos 0 °
W  = 144× 1 = 144 J

Therefore, the work done will be 144 J.
