🧩 Step 1: Solve Each Multiplication Problem

We’ll go through each multiplication problem and compute the answer.

#### 🔹 Top Row:
1. 87 × 6
→ 80×6 = 480, 7×6 = 42 → 480 + 42 = 522

2. 17 × 9
→ 10×9 = 90, 7×9 = 63 → 90 + 63 = 153

3. 94 × 5
→ 90×5 = 450, 4×5 = 20 → 450 + 20 = 470

> ✔ So far:
> - 522 → black
> - 153 → pink
> - 470 → pink

#### 🔹 Second Row:
4. 30 × 4 = 120 → white
5. 64 × 6 = 60×6 = 360, 4×6 = 24 → 360+24 = 384 → light blue
6. 18 × 6 = 10×6 = 60, 8×6 = 48 → 60+48 = 108 → light blue

---

#### 🔹 Third Row:
7. 42 × 4 = 40×4 = 160, 2×4 = 8 → 160+8 = 168 → any hair color
8. 76 × 3 = 70×3 = 210, 6×3 = 18 → 210+18 = 228 → any skin color
9. 80 × 4 = 320 → any skin color

---

#### 🔹 Fourth Row:
10. 24 × 2 = 48 → blue
11. 60 × 4 = 240 → green
12. 99 × 4 = 100×4 = 400 – 1×4 = 4 → 400–4 = 396 → green

---

#### 🔹 Bottom Row:
13. 34 × 2 = 68 → dark blue
14. 86 × 5 = 80×5 = 400, 6×5 = 30 → 400+30 = 430 → red
15. 76 × 5 = 70×5 = 350, 6×5 = 30 → 350+30 = 380 → red
