Let’s solve each multiplication problem step by step using skip counting on the number line, just like the worksheet shows.

First Problem: 3 × 4
This means we have 3 groups of 4 objects each.
We can skip count by 4s three times:
- Start at 0 → jump to 4 (that’s 1 group)
- Jump to 8 (that’s 2 groups)
- Jump to 12 (that’s 3 groups)
So, 3 × 4 =
12
Looking at the choices: 15, 12, 18 → correct answer is
12

Second Problem: 4 × 6
This means 4 groups of 6 objects each.
Skip count by 6s four times:
- Start at 0 → jump to 6 (1st group)
- Jump to 12 (2nd group)
- Jump to 18 (3rd group)
- Jump to 24 (4th group)
So, 4 × 6 =
24
Choices: 28, 20, 24 → correct answer is
24

Third Problem: 4 × 7
This means 4 groups of 7 objects each.
Skip count by 7s four times:
- Start at 0 → jump to 7 (1st group)
- Jump to 14 (2nd group)
- Jump to 21 (3rd group)
- Jump to 28 (4th group)
So, 4 × 7 =
28
Choices: 28, 35, 45 → correct answer is
28

Final Answer:
12, 24, 28
