Let’s go through each problem one by one. We’re looking at arrays — that means objects arranged in rows and columns. To write a multiplication sentence, we count:
- How many
rows there are (horizontal lines of objects)
- How many
columns there are (vertical lines of objects)
Then multiply:
Rows × Columns = Total

Problem 1:
There are 3 rows of ice cream cups.
Each row has 4 cups.
So: 3 × 4 = 12
✔ Check: 3 rows × 4 = 12 total → correct.
---
Problem 2:
There are 2 rows of pitchers.
Each row has 2 pitchers.
So: 2 × 2 = 4
✔ Check: 2 rows × 2 = 4 total → correct.
---
Problem 3:
There are 4 rows of whistles.
Each row has 5 whistles.
So: 4 × 5 = 20
✔ Check: 4 rows × 5 = 20 total → correct.
---
Problem 4:
There are 2 rows of pears.
Each row has 3 pears.
So: 2 × 3 = 6
✔ Check: 2 rows × 3 = 6 total → correct.
---
Problem 5:
There are 3 rows of phones.
Each row has 3 phones.
So: 3 × 3 = 9
✔ Check: 3 rows × 3 = 9 total → correct.
---
Problem 6:
There are 5 rows of brushes.
Each row has 3 brushes.
So: 5 × 3 = 15
✔ Check: 5 rows × 3 = 15 total → correct.
---
Problem 7:
There are 2 rows of drinks.
Each row has 5 drinks.
So: 2 × 5 = 10
✔ Check: 2 rows × 5 = 10 total → correct.
---
Problem 8:
There are 4 rows of watches.
Each row has 4 watches.
So: 4 × 4 = 16
✔ Check: 4 rows × 4 = 16 total → correct.
