To solve this puzzle, we need to find the product (the answer) for each multiplication problem in the grid. Then, we match that answer to the Color Key at the bottom to determine which color belongs in that square.

Here is the 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 ranges, it likely means 101–125 because 10-25 is already Black. We will assume numbers over 100 are Red).*
* 126–150: White

Let's calculate the values for the different sections of the image to reveal the hidden picture.

Step 1: Analyze the "Green" Areas (Background/Leaves)


The green areas are mostly on the outside edges. Let's check a few to confirm they are between 76 and 100.
* $12 \times 9 = 108$ (Wait, this is over 100. Let's look closer at the top left corner).
* Top Left Corner: $12 \times 4 = 48$ (Yellow), $8 \times 10 = 80$ (Green), $7 \times 11 = 77$ (Green), $9 \times 9 = 81$ (Green), $11 \times 7 = 77$ (Green).
* It seems the very outer border has mixed colors, but large chunks are Green.
* Let's check a clear Green spot: $12 \times 8 = 96$. This fits the Green range (76–100).
* Another one: $9 \times 10 = 90$. This fits Green.

Step 2: Analyze the "Black" Areas (Outlines/Shadows)


The black areas act as outlines. These answers must be between 0 and 25.
* Example: $3 \times 4 = 12$. This is Black.
* Example: $2 \times 5 = 10$. This is Black.
* Example: $1 \times 12 = 12$. This is Black.
* Looking at the grid, the dark lines separating the shapes are made of small multiplication problems like $3 \times 3$, $2 \times 6$, etc., which result in small numbers.

Step 3: Analyze the Central Image (The Flower)


The central image looks like a flower with a face or a sun. Let's identify the colors by solving the math in those specific zones.

The Center (Face/Middle):
There is a distinct red square in the lower-middle section. Let's verify the math there.
* One box says $10 \times 11 = 110$.
* Another says $12 \times 9 = 108$.
* Another says $11 \times 11 = 121$.
* All these numbers (108, 110, 121) fall into the 101–125 range, which corresponds to Red. So, the center of the flower is Red.

The Petals (Yellow):
Surrounding the red center are yellow petals. Let's check the math in the yellow zones.
* Top Petal area: $6 \times 8 = 48$. This is in the 26–50 range (Yellow).
* Side Petal area: $7 \times 5 = 35$. This is in the 26–50 range (Yellow).
* Another spot: $9 \times 5 = 45$. This is Yellow.
* Another spot: $11 \times 4 = 44$. This is Yellow.

The Stem/Leaves (Green & Blue):
Below the flower, there is a stem area.
* Some boxes are $12 \times 6 = 72$. This falls in the 51–75 range (Blue).
* Other boxes near the bottom are $10 \times 8 = 80$. This falls in the 76–100 range (Green).

The Sky/Background (White & Blue):
* There is a band of White above the flower. Let's check a white box.
* Box says $12 \times 12 = 144$. This falls in the 126–150 range (White).
* Box says $11 \times 12 = 132$. This is also White.
* To the right of the white area, there are Blue spots.
* Box says $8 \times 9 = 72$. This is Blue (51–75).
* Box says $11 \times 5 = 55$. This is Blue.

Conclusion of the Hidden Image


By solving the multiplication problems and applying the color key:
1. The background has patches of Green (leaves/bushes) and White (clouds/sky) and Blue (sky).
2. The outline is Black.
3. The main object in the center is a Flower.
* It has Yellow petals.
* It has a Red center.
* It sits on a Green and Blue stem/ground area.

The hidden image is a Flower.

Final Answer:
The hidden image is a Flower (with yellow petals, a red center, and green leaves/stem).
