Let's simplify the problem a little, and assume there's only three swings in the fight, they happen 8 seconds apart, and each swing has a 1/12 chance of a proc.
Using Y for a proc and N for no proc, there's 2^3 or eight possible outcomes:
YYY
YYN
YNY
YNN
NYY
NYN
NNY
NNN
In each of these eight outcomes, how much total damage does the proc do?

You are thinking about the problem incorrectly.
Proccing is the exact same concept as rolling a D12 twelve times in a row and hoping for one specific number one time. Worst case you get the number after 12 rolls, best case you get the number after 1 roll.
Average is rolling 6.5 times to get the specific number you want.
