Let’s solve this step by step.
We have a multiplication table with icons representing numbers. The rows and columns are labeled with icons, and the cells inside show the result of multiplying the row icon by the column icon.
The table looks like this (we’ll label rows and columns for clarity):
Columns:
- Column 1: Potion (P)
- Column 2: Number 2
- Column 3: Zombie Hand (H)
Rows:
- Row 1: Potion (P)
- Row 2: Zombie Hand (H)
- Row 3: Bat (B)
Now let’s fill in what we know from the grid:
Row 1 (Potion × columns):
- P × P = 1 → So P² = 1 → P = 1 (since we’re dealing with positive whole numbers in multiplication tables like this)
- P × 2 = Lips → So 1 × 2 = 2 → Lips = 2
- P × H = H → So 1 × H = H → This checks out, no new info
Row 2 (Zombie Hand × columns):
- H × P = 3 → Since P = 1, then H × 1 = 3 → H = 3
- H × 2 = Bat → So 3 × 2 = 6 → Bat = 6
- H × H = 9 → 3 × 3 = 9 → Checks out!
Row 3 (Bat × columns):
- B × P = Bat → 6 × 1 = 6 → Matches the icon (Bat), good
- B × 2 = 12 → 6 × 2 = 12 → Correct!
- B × H = Moon → 6 × 3 = 18 → Moon = 18
So now we have all values:
- Potion (P) = 1
- Zombie Hand (H) = 3
- Bat (B) = 6
- Lips = 2 (from P×2)
- Moon = 18 (from B×H)
Double-check everything:
P × P = 1×1=1
✔
P × 2 = 1×2=2 (Lips)
✔
P × H = 1×3=3? Wait — in the grid, P×H is shown as Zombie Hand icon, which equals 3. But 1×3=3, so that matches the value, even though the cell shows the icon. Actually, looking again — in row 1, column 3, it shows the Zombie Hand icon, which we now know is 3. And 1×3=3, so yes, correct.
H × P = 3×1=3
✔ (shows number 3)
H × 2 = 3×2=6 (Bat icon)
✔
H × H = 3×3=9
✔
B × P = 6×1=6 (Bat icon)
✔
B × 2 = 6×2=12
✔
B × H = 6×3=18 (Moon icon)
✔
All consistent.
Final Answer:
Potion = 1, Zombie Hand = 3, Bat = 6, Lips = 2, Moon = 18
