To solve this coloring puzzle, we need to calculate the answer for each multiplication problem in the key on the right. Then, we match those answers to the numbers inside the picture to see which color goes where.
Here is the step-by-step calculation for each problem:
Row 1:
* $87 \times 6$:
* $7 \times 6 = 42$ (write down 2, carry over 4)
* $8 \times 6 = 48$
* $48 + 4 = 52$
* Answer:
522 $\rightarrow$ Color:
black
* $17 \times 9$:
* $7 \times 9 = 63$ (write down 3, carry over 6)
* $1 \times 9 = 9$
* $9 + 6 = 15$
* Answer:
153 $\rightarrow$ Color:
pink
* $94 \times 5$:
* $4 \times 5 = 20$ (write down 0, carry over 2)
* $9 \times 5 = 45$
* $45 + 2 = 47$
* Answer:
470 $\rightarrow$ Color:
pink
Row 2:
* $30 \times 4$:
* $3 \times 4 = 12$, add the zero.
* Answer:
120 $\rightarrow$ Color:
white
* $64 \times 6$:
* $4 \times 6 = 24$ (write down 4, carry over 2)
* $6 \times 6 = 36$
* $36 + 2 = 38$
* Answer:
384 $\rightarrow$ Color:
light blue
* $18 \times 6$:
* $8 \times 6 = 48$ (write down 8, carry over 4)
* $1 \times 6 = 6$
* $6 + 4 = 10$
* Answer:
108 $\rightarrow$ Color:
light blue
Row 3:
* $42 \times 4$:
* $2 \times 4 = 8$
* $4 \times 4 = 16$
* Answer:
168 $\rightarrow$ Color:
any hair color
* $76 \times 3$:
* $6 \times 3 = 18$ (write down 8, carry over 1)
* $7 \times 3 = 21$
* $21 + 1 = 22$
* Answer:
228 $\rightarrow$ Color:
any skin color
* $80 \times 4$:
* $8 \times 4 = 32$, add the zero.
* Answer:
320 $\rightarrow$ Color:

blue
* $60 \times 4$:
* $6 \times 4 = 24$, add the zero.
* Answer:
240 $\rightarrow$ Color:
green
* $99 \times 4$:
* $9 \times 4 = 36$ (write down 6, carry over 3)
* $9 \times 4 = 36$
* $36 + 3 = 39$
* Answer:
396 $\rightarrow$ Color:
green
Row 5:
* $34 \times 2$:
* $4 \times 2 = 8$
* $3 \times 2 = 6$
* Answer:
68 $\rightarrow$ Color:
dark blue
* $86 \times 5$:
* $6 \times 5 = 30$ (write down 0, carry over 3)
* $8 \times 5 = 40$
* $40 + 3 = 43$
* Answer:
430 $\rightarrow$ Color:
red
* $76 \times 5$:
* $6 \times 5 = 30$ (write down 0, carry over 3)
* $7 \times 5 = 35$
