Problem 1: Soccer Balls

We have a grid of soccer balls:

```
⚽ ⚽ ⚽ ⚽
⚽ ⚽ ⚽ ⚽
⚽ ⚽ ⚽ ⚽
```

- There are 3 rows and 4 columns.
- Each row has 4 soccer balls.
- Each column has 3 soccer balls.

#### Row-wise:
3 rows × 4 balls per row = 12 balls
→ 3 × 4 = 12

#### Column-wise:
4 columns × 3 balls per column = 12 balls
→ 4 × 3 = 12

✔ Answer:
```
3 × 4 = 12
AND
4 × 3 = 12
```

Problem 2: Sailboats

We have two rows of sailboats:

```
⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵
⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵
```

- There are 2 rows and 6 columns.
- Each row has 6 boats.
- Each column has 2 boats.

#### Row-wise:
2 rows × 6 boats per row = 12 boats
→ 2 × 6 = 12

#### Column-wise:
6 columns × 2 boats per column = 12 boats
→ 6 × 2 = 12

✔ Answer:
```
2 × 6 = 12
AND
6 × 2 = 12
```

Problem 3: Jellies (or Cupcakes)

We have a grid of yellow jellies:

```
🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡
🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡
🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡
🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡 🟡
```

- There are 4 rows and 5 columns.
- Each row has 5 jellies.
- Each column has 4 jellies.

#### Row-wise:
4 rows × 5 jellies per row = 20 jellies
→ 4 × 5 = 20

#### Column-wise:
5 columns × 4 jellies per column = 20 jellies
→ 5 × 4 = 20

✔ Answer:
```
4 × 5 = 20
AND
5 × 4 = 20
```

✔ Final Answers:

1.
`3 × 4 = 12`
AND
`4 × 3 = 12`

2.
`2 × 6 = 12`
AND
`6 × 2 = 12`

3.
`4 × 5 = 20`
AND

💡 Explanation:
Multiplication is commutative, meaning the order doesn't matter. But here, we're showing how to interpret arrays both row-wise (number of rows × number in each row) and column-wise (number of columns × number in each column). This helps understand the concept of arrays and repeated addition in multiplication.
