📝 Explanation:

Each problem follows the pattern:
> Number of groups × Size of each group = Total

This is the basic idea behind multiplication: repeated addition. For example, 3 rows of 4 carrots means:
$$
4 + 4 + 4 = 12 \quad \text{or} \quad 3 \times 4 = 12
$$

These problems help build understanding of real-world applications of multiplication.
