To solve this puzzle, we need to calculate the multiplication problem in each square and then color it according to the key provided at the bottom.

Color Key:
* 0–25: Black
* 26–50: Yellow
* 51–75: Blue
* 76–100: Green
* 10–125: Red (Note: The key says 10-125, but looking at the numbers, it likely means 101–125. Let's assume 101-125 is Red because 10-25 is already Black).
* 126–150: White

Let's break down the image section by section to reveal the hidden image. I will sample key areas to determine the colors.

Step 1: Analyze the Top Section (The Head/Ears)
* Top Left Corner: $12 \times 9 = 108$ (Red), $8 \times 10 = 80$ (Green), $7 \times 11 = 77$ (Blue), $9 \times 9 = 81$ (Green), $11 \times 7 = 77$ (Blue).
* Top Right Corner: $9 \times 10 = 90$ (Green), $11 \times 8 = 88$ (Green), $7 \times 11 = 77$ (Blue), $12 \times 8 = 96$ (Green), $11 \times 7 = 77$ (Blue), $9 \times 11 = 99$ (Green), $10 \times 10 = 100$ (Green).
* Just below the top corners, there are many black squares ($0-25$). For example, $4 \times 4 = 16$, $3 \times 8 = 24$. These form the outline of ears.
* The area between the ears has yellows and greens. $7 \times 7 = 49$ (Yellow), $6 \times 8 = 48$ (Yellow), $5 \times 10 = 50$ (Yellow). This suggests a yellow face with green/blue accents.

Step 2: Analyze the Middle Section (The Face/Body)
* Center Left: $10 \times 3 = 30$ (Yellow), $12 \times 4 = 48$ (Yellow), $9 \times 5 = 45$ (Yellow).
* Center Right: $9 \times 5 = 45$ (Yellow), $10 \times 4 = 40$ (Yellow), $10 \times 7 = 70$ (Blue).
* There is a distinct blue patch on the left side: $5 \times 12 = 60$ (Blue), $5 \times 11 = 55$ (Blue), $11 \times 6 = 66$ (Blue).
* There is a distinct blue patch on the right side: $9 \times 6 = 54$ (Blue), $11 \times 5 = 55$ (Blue), $12 \times 6 = 72$ (Blue).
* The center of the body has a lot of black squares forming a shape. For instance, $2 \times 12 = 24$ (Black), $12 \times 2 = 24$ (Black). This black shape looks like a tie or a vest opening.

Step 3: Analyze the Bottom Section (The Feet/Legs)
* Bottom Left: $7 \times 10 = 70$ (Blue), $10 \times 5 = 50$ (Yellow), $12 \times 8 = 96$ (Green).
* Bottom Right: $8 \times 11 = 88$ (Green), $7 \times 12 = 84$ (Green), $4 \times 9 = 36$ (Yellow), $10 \times 10 = 100$ (Green), $12 \times 6 = 72$ (Blue).
* There is a red section in the lower middle: $10 \times 11 = 110$ (Red), $12 \times 9 = 108$ (Red), $11 \times 11 = 121$ (Red), $9 \times 12 = 108$ (Red). This red block looks like a shirt or belly area.

Putting it together:
* Head: Two pointed ears (black outline) with a yellow/green face.
* Body: A yellow upper body with blue arms/sides.
* Center: A black vertical strip (like a tuxedo cat marking or a tie).
* Lower Body: A red rectangular area (shirt/belly).
* Feet: Green and blue blocks at the bottom.

The character has pointy ears, a yellow face, a black nose/mouth area (implied by the black squares in the center of the face), and is wearing what looks like a suit or has specific markings. The combination of yellow face, pointy ears, and the general shape strongly resembles Mickey Mouse if he were yellow, but Mickey is usually black and red. Wait, let's look closer at the "Yellow" face.

Let's re-evaluate the character based on common "color by number" subjects for this age group.
* Pointed ears? Yes.
* Yellow face? Yes.
* Blue sides/arms? Yes.
* Red belly/shirt? Yes.
* Black details? Yes.

Is it Donald Duck? No, Donald has a bill.
Is it Goofy? No.
Is it Pluto? Pluto is yellow/orange with black ears. But this image has blue and red parts.

Let's look at the shape again.
The top part is wide with two "ears".
The middle narrows slightly.
The bottom is wider again.

Actually, looking at the distribution:
* The "ears" are actually just the top corners of a square-ish head.
* The black squares in the middle of the face ($4 \times 4$, $3 \times 8$, etc.) form eyes and a nose.
* The red section at the bottom ($10 \times 11$, etc.) is a shirt.
* The yellow section above the red shirt is the face/chest.
* The blue sections on the side might be sleeves or background.

Let's look at the very specific pattern of the black squares in the center.
Row with $11 \times 2$, $12 \times 2$, $12 \times 11$... wait.
Let's look at the face features specifically.
Eyes: Usually white or light. Here we have $126-150$ as White.
Where are the whites?
Top right: $12 \times 12 = 144$ (White).
Middle right: $12 \times 11 = 132$ (White).
Bottom right: $12 \times 12 = 144$ (White).
There is a cluster of white squares on the right side of the face/body. This might be an eye or a highlight.

Let's reconsider the whole image structure.
It looks like a Cat.
Specifically, a cartoon cat sitting down.
* Pointed ears (top corners).
* Yellow/Green face.
* Black nose/whiskers area.
* Red shirt/body.
* Blue paws or sides?

However, there is a very famous character that fits this color scheme: Garfield? No, Garfield is orange.
Tom from Tom and Jerry? Tom is grey/blue.
Sylvester? Black and white.

Let's look at the "Hidden Image" prompt again. It's a single character.
The colors are:
* Green/Yellow head.
* Blue sides.
* Red belly.
* Black details.

Could it be a Robot?
Or perhaps a Monster?

Let's try calculating a few more specific spots to define the shape better.
The black squares form a clear outline of a head with two triangular ears.
Inside the head, there are yellow and green squares.
Below the head, there is a body.
The body has a large red section in the center-bottom.
The sides of the body are blue.
The feet are green/yellow.

This color distribution (Yellow head, Blue body/sides, Red belly) is very characteristic of Minion? No, Minions are yellow all over with blue overalls.
What about Pikachu? Yellow body, red cheeks, black tips on ears.
* Ears: The top corners have black ($11 \times 2 = 22$, $12 \times 2 = 24$). If the tips are black, that fits Pikachu.
* Face: Yellow ($7 \times 7 = 49$, $6 \times 8 = 48$). Fits Pikachu.
* Cheeks: Red. Are there red circles on the cheeks?
* Left cheek area: $10 \times 11 = 110$ (Red) is too low. The reds are concentrated in the lower middle block ($10 \times 11$, $12 \times 9$, $11 \times 11$). This is a big block, not small cheeks.
* So probably not Pikachu.

Let's look at the shape of the black "mask" or "vest".
The black squares run down the center.
$4 \times 4 = 16$ (Black)
$3 \times 8 = 24$ (Black)
$5 \times 5 = 25$ (Black)
$2 \times 12 = 24$ (Black)
This creates a vertical black stripe.

What animal has a vertical stripe? A skunk? A cat?

Let's look at the white squares again.
$12 \times 11 = 132$ (White)
$12 \times 12 = 144$ (White)
$11 \times 12 = 132$ (White)
These are in a block on the right side.
And on the left?
$12 \times 11 = 132$ (White) is also on the left?
Let's check the left side white squares.
Row with $11 \times 12$: $11 \times 12 = 132$ (White).
So there are two white patches on the sides? Or maybe eyes?
If the white squares are eyes, they are huge.

Let's step back and look at the overall silhouette formed by the non-white/non-background colors.
The grid is roughly square.
The colored area fills most of the grid.
The top has two "humps" or ears.
The bottom is flat.

Is it a House? No.
Is it a Gift Box? No.

Let's try one more character: Hello Kitty?
* Bow: Red. The red section is at the bottom/center. Hello Kitty's bow is on her ear.
* Face: White. Here the face is Yellow/Green.

How about Winnie the Pooh?
* Yellow bear.
* Red shirt.
* This fits perfectly!
* Head: Yellow/Green (Pooh is yellow, green might be shading or just part of the palette limit).
* Ears: Roundish, but in pixel art, they can look like humps. The black squares might be the inner ear or outline.
* Shirt: Red. The big block of red ($101-125$) is exactly where Pooh's shirt would be.
* Arms/Sides: Blue? Pooh doesn't wear blue. But maybe the "Blue" ($51-75$) represents his arms or legs which are yellow? Wait, if his arms are yellow, they should be colored yellow.
* Let's check the arm areas.
* Left side: $5 \times 12 = 60$ (Blue). $11 \times 6 = 66$ (Blue).
* Right side: $9 \times 6 = 54$ (Blue). $11 \times 5 = 55$ (Blue).
* Why would Pooh's arms be blue? They wouldn't.
* Unless... the "Blue" is actually his pants? No, Pooh doesn't wear pants.

Let's re-read the key.
0-25 Black
26-50 Yellow
51-75 Blue
76-100 Green
101-125 Red
126-150 White

Maybe the character is Mario?
* Hat: Red. The top is Green/Yellow. No.
* Shirt: Red. The bottom is Red.
* Overalls: Blue. The sides are Blue.
* Face: Yellow/Skin tone. The top is Yellow/Green.
* This fits surprisingly well!
* Hat: The top section is Green and Yellow. Mario's hat is Red. So probably not Mario unless he's wearing a green hat (Luigi?).
* Luigi?
* Hat: Green. Top section has lots of Green ($76-100$). $12 \times 8 = 96$ (Green), $11 \times 8 = 88$ (Green). Yes! The top is predominantly Green.
* Face: Yellow/Skin. $7 \times 7 = 49$ (Yellow). Yes.
* Shirt: Green? Luigi wears a green shirt. But the middle/bottom has a big Red block. Luigi wears blue overalls and a green shirt.
* Overalls: Blue. The sides are Blue ($51-75$).
* Buttons/Details: Yellow?
* The big Red block ($101-125$) is in the lower center. Luigi doesn't have a red block there.

Let's look at Mario again.
* Hat: Red. The top is NOT red.
* Shirt: Red. The bottom IS red.
* Overalls: Blue. The sides ARE blue.
* Face: Yellow. The top-middle IS yellow.
* So, if the top was Red, it would be Mario. But the top is Green/Yellow.

Is it Luigi with a red mistake? Or is it another character?
What character has:
* Green Hat/Head
* Yellow Face
* Blue Sides/Overalls
* Red Belly/Shirt?

Maybe it's not a Nintendo character.

Let's look at the black squares again. They form a mustache?
In the yellow face area, are there black squares for a mustache?
$4 \times 6 = 24$ (Black).
$5 \times 5 = 25$ (Black).
$3 \times 8 = 24$ (Black).
These are in the center of the yellow face area. This looks like a nose and a mustache!
A character with a mustache, green hat, blue overalls, and red shirt?
That sounds like Mario but with the colors shifted?
Or Luigi? Luigi has a mustache.
If it's Luigi:
* Hat: Green (Matches top).
* Face: Yellow (Matches face).
* Mustache: Black (Matches center face).
* Shirt: Green. But the chest/belly is Red in the image.
* Overalls: Blue (Matches sides).

Wait, look at the red section again.
$10 \times 11 = 110$ (Red).
$12 \times 9 = 108$ (Red).
$11 \times 11 = 121$ (Red).
$9 \times 12 = 108$ (Red).
$10 \times 10 = 100$ (Green) - just above the red.
$8 \times 12 = 96$ (Green) - next to the red.

Is it possible the character is Wario?
* Hat: Yellow.
* Face: Yellow.
* Shirt: Purple? No purple key.
* Overalls: Yellow?

Is it Waluigi?
* Hat: Purple. No purple key.

Let's reconsider the Cat idea.
A cat with a green hat? No.

What if the "Red" shirt is actually overalls and the "Blue" sides are the shirt?
* Blue Shirt ($51-75$).
* Red Overalls ($101-125$).
* Green Hat ($76-100$).
* Yellow Face ($26-50$).
* Black Mustache ($0-25$).

Who wears a Green Hat, Blue Shirt, and Red Overalls?
This is a very specific color combo.

Actually, let's look at the shape of the "Red" area. It's a rectangle in the lower center.
The "Blue" areas are on the left and right flanks.
The "Green" area is the top.
The "Yellow" area is the face.

This looks exactly like Luigi, but the shirt color is wrong (Red instead of Green).
OR... is it Mario and the hat is colored Green by mistake in my analysis?
Let's re-check the top colors.
Top Left: $12 \times 9 = 108$ (Red). Ah!
Top Right: $9 \times 10 = 90$ (Green).
Top Middle: $7 \times 11 = 77$ (Blue), $9 \times 9 = 81$ (Green).

Let's map the top row carefully.
Row 1:
$12 \times 9 = 108$ (Red)
$8 \times 10 = 80$ (Green)
$7 \times 11 = 77$ (Blue)
$9 \times 9 = 81$ (Green)
$11 \times 7 = 77$ (Blue)
...
$9 \times 10 = 90$ (Green)
$11 \times 8 = 88$ (Green)
$7 \times 11 = 77$ (Blue)
$12 \times 8 = 96$ (Green)
$11 \times 7 = 77$ (Blue)
$9 \times 11 = 99$ (Green)
$10 \times 10 = 100$ (Green)

So the hat is a mix of Red, Green, and Blue. That's a plaid hat? Or a messy hat?
Most likely, the dominant color of the hat determines the character.
There is a lot of Green and some Red.

Let's look at the mustache again.
The black squares in the face:
$4 \times 6 = 24$
$5 \times 5 = 25$
$3 \times 8 = 24$
$4 \times 5 = 20$
$5 \times 4 = 20$
This forms a T-shape or a cross. Nose and Mustache.

Character with Mustache + Hat + Overalls = Mario or Luigi.
Given the prominent Green in the hat and the Blue on the sides (overalls), it is almost certainly Luigi. The Red patch on the belly might be a detail I'm misinterpreting, or perhaps Luigi is holding something red? Or maybe the "Red" is actually his buttons? No, it's too big.

Wait, look at the white squares again.
$12 \times 11 = 132$ (White).
$11 \times 12 = 132$ (White).
$12 \times 12 = 144$ (White).
These are located on the "Blue" arms/sides.
White gloves!
Mario and Luigi wear white gloves.
The white squares are on the hands/paws area.

So we have:
* Hat: Green/Red mix (Likely Green for Luigi).
* Face: Yellow.
* Mustache: Black.
* Shirt/Body: Blue (Sides) and Red (Center).
* Gloves: White.

If it's Luigi:
* Hat: Green.
* Shirt: Green.
* Overalls: Blue.
* Gloves: White.

If it's Mario:
* Hat: Red.
* Shirt: Red.
* Overalls: Blue.
* Gloves: White.

The image has:
* Top (Hat): Mixed Green/Red/Blue.
* Sides (Overalls?): Blue.
* Center Belly: Red.
* Gloves: White.

This matches Mario best IF the hat was primarily Red. But the hat has a lot of Green.
However, the belly is RED. Mario has a Red shirt. Luigi has a Green shirt.
The sides are BLUE. Mario has Blue overalls. Luigi has Blue overalls.
The gloves are WHITE. Both have white gloves.
The face is YELLOW. Both have skin tone faces.
The mustache is BLACK. Both have black mustaches.

The deciding factor is the Shirt/Belly color vs Hat color.
Belly is clearly Red ($10 \times 11$, etc.).
Hat is mixed, but has significant Green.

Is it possible the character is not Mario/Luigi?
What about Waldo (Where's Waldo)?
* Hat: Red/White.
* Shirt: Red/White stripes.
* Pants: Blue.
* Glasses: Black.
* Face: Yellow.
Does the image show stripes?
The top has alternating colors? Not really.
The belly is solid Red. Waldo's shirt is striped.

Let's go with the most recognizable iconography for school worksheets.
Mustache + Hat + Overalls = Super Mario Bros.
The Red Belly strongly points to Mario. The Green in the hat might be shading or just random variation in the problem generation, OR it's Luigi and the Red belly is a mistake in my "Luigi has green shirt" knowledge? No, Luigi definitely has a green shirt.

Wait, could it be Toad?
* Hat: White with Red spots.
* Vest: Blue.
* Pants: Brown?
No mustache.

Could it be Bowser?
* Shell: Green/Yellow.
* Skin: Yellow.
* Hair: Red.
No overalls.

Let's look at the "Hidden Image" text again. "Find the answer using the color key below to color in a hidden image!"

Let's assume the question asks for the name of the character.
Based on the Blue Overalls, White Gloves, Black Mustache, and Red Shirt/Belly, the character is Mario. The green in the hat is likely due to the specific multiplication results falling into the 76-100 range, but the iconic Red Shirt is the strongest identifier for the torso.

However, there is another possibility. Is it a Leprechaun?
* Green Hat.
* Green Coat?
* Red Beard? No, black mustache.

Let's stick with Mario. The red shirt is central. The blue overalls are on the sides. The white gloves are on the hands. The black mustache is on the face. The hat is the only ambiguous part, but Mario hats are often depicted with highlights or variations.

Alternative Check:
Could it be a Penguin?
* Black and White body.
* Yellow beak/feet.
* No, too much color.

Could it be a Robot?
* Square head.
* Antennae?
* No mustache.

Final Decision Process:
1. Identify Features: Mustache (Black), Hat (Top), Face (Yellow), Shirt (Red), Overalls/Sides (Blue), Gloves (White).
2. Match Character:
* Mario: Red Hat, Red Shirt, Blue Overalls, White Gloves, Black Mustache. (Match: Shirt, Overalls, Gloves, Mustache. Mismatch: Hat has green).
* Luigi: Green Hat, Green Shirt, Blue Overalls, White Gloves, Black Mustache. (Match: Hat has green, Overalls, Gloves, Mustache. Mismatch: Shirt is Red, not Green).
3. Resolve Conflict: In many "color by number" puzzles, the main body color (Shirt) is a stronger identifier than the hat shading. Also, Mario is more commonly used than Luigi. However, the presence of significant Green in the hat is suspicious.
* Let's check the top-left corner again: $12 \times 9 = 108$ (Red).
* Top-right corner: $10 \times 10 = 100$ (Green).
* It's a mix.
* But the belly is SOLID Red.
* Therefore, Mario is the best fit.

Another option: Super Mario is the franchise. The character is Mario.

Final Answer:
The hidden image is Mario (from Super Mario Bros).
