Let’s solve each problem step by step, understanding that
multiplication is repeated addition — we’re counting equal groups of objects.

🔹 Problem 1: Apples
We see
4 circles, and
each circle has 4 apples.
So:
>
4 groups of 4 apples each.
Repeated addition:
> =
4 + 4 + 4 + 4
Multiplication sentence:
> =
4 × 4
Total:
> =
16
✔ Final Answers for Problem 1:
- 4 groups of 4 apples each.
- = 4 + 4 + 4 + 4
- = 4 × 4
- = 16

🔹 Problem 2: Marbles
We see
5 circles, and
each circle has 3 marbles.
So:
>
5 groups of 3 marbles each.
Repeated addition:
> =
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3
Multiplication sentence:
> =
5 × 3
Total:
> =
15
✔ Final Answers for Problem 2:
- 5 groups of 3 marbles each.
- = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3
- = 5 × 3
- = 15

🔹 Problem 3: Boats
We see
3 large ovals (groups), and
each oval has 6 boats.
So:
>
3 groups of 6 boats each.
Repeated addition:
> =
6 + 6 + 6
Multiplication sentence:
> =
3 × 6
Total:
> =
18
✔ Final Answers for Problem 3:
- 3 groups of 6 boats each.
- = 6 + 6 + 6
- = 3 × 6
- = 18

## 🎯 Summary of All Answers:
1. Apples
- 4 groups of 4 apples each.
- = 4 + 4 + 4 + 4
- = 4 × 4
- = 16
2. Marbles
- 5 groups of 3 marbles each.
- = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3
- = 5 × 3
- = 15
3. Boats
- 3 groups of 6 boats each.
- = 6 + 6 + 6
- = 3 × 6
- = 18
This worksheet teaches the concept that
multiplication = repeated addition of equal groups — a foundational idea in early math! 🚀
