🔍 Explanation:
-
Repeated Addition: We add the number of items in each group as many times as there are groups.
-
Multiplication: It’s a shortcut for repeated addition — number of groups × number in each group = total.
This helps students understand that multiplication is just adding the same number multiple times! 🚀
