✔ Final Answers:
| Problem | Repeated Addition | Multiplication |
|--------|-------------------|----------------|
| 1 | 3 + 3 = 6 | 2 × 3 = 6 |
| 2 | 2 + 2 + 2 = 6 | 3 × 2 = 6 |
| 3 | 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8 | 4 × 2 = 8 |
| 4 | 5 + 5 = 10 | 2 × 5 = 10 |
| 5 | 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12| 4 × 3 = 12 |

🔍 Explanation:
-
Repeated addition means adding the same number multiple times (e.g., 3 + 3).
-
Multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition: number of groups × number in each group.
- The total number of items is the same in both methods.
This helps students understand how multiplication relates to addition! 🎉
