📝 Explanation:
Each image shows a
rectangular array, where items are arranged in equal rows and columns. Multiplication helps us find the total quickly by multiplying the number of rows by the number of items per row.
For example:
- If there are 3 rows and 4 items in each row → 3 × 4 = 12 total items.
This method builds foundational understanding of multiplication as repeated addition and visual grouping.
