Let’s solve each part step by step.
---
First group: Cherries
We see 5 groups of cherries. Each group has 2 cherries.
So, we multiply:
→ 5 × 2 = 10
Check the options:
- 5 × 4 = 20 → too big
- 5 × 2 = 10 → correct!
- 3 × 2 = 6 → wrong number of groups
- 4 × 2 = 8 → wrong number of groups
✔ So, circle
5 × 2 = and write
10 for how many cherries.
---
Second group: Spiders
Each spider has 8 legs. There are 2 spiders.
So, we multiply:
→ 2 × 8 = 16
Check the options:
- 2 × 4 = 8 → that would be if each had 4 legs (wrong)
- 2 × 8 = 16 → correct!
- 2 × 6 = 12 → wrong leg count
- 4 × 8 = 32 → too many spiders
✔ Circle
2 × 8 = and write
16 for how many spider legs.
---
Third group: Penguins
We see 3 groups of penguins. Each group has 3 penguins.
So, we multiply:
→ 3 × 3 = 9
Check the options:
- 9 × 3 = 27 → way too big
- 6 × 3 = 18 → too big
- 3 × 9 = 27 → same as above
- 3 × 3 = 9 → correct!
✔ Circle
3 × 3 = and write
9 for how many penguins.
---
Fourth group: Roses
We see 2 groups of roses. Each group has 5 roses.
So, we multiply:
→ 2 × 5 = 10
Check the options:
- 5 × 7 = 35 → too big
- 4 × 2 = 8 → wrong numbers
- 2 × 7 = 14 → wrong rose count per group
- 2 × 5 = 10 → correct!
✔ Circle
2 × 5 = and write
10 for how many roses.
