Let’s solve each problem step by step.
---
Problem 1:
We see 2 rows of apples, and each row has 2 apples.
That means: 2 groups of 2 → 2 × 2 = 4
So the multiplication sentence is:
2 × 2 = 4
---
Problem 2:
We see 3 rows of strawberries, and each row has 4 strawberries.
That means: 3 groups of 4 → 3 × 4 = 12
Look at the options:
- 3 × 4 = 12
✔ (correct)
- 3 × 4 = 17
✘
- 12 × 4 = 3
✘
- 3 × 4 = 17
✘
Answer:
3 × 4 = 12
---
Problem 3:
We see 5 rows of dots, and each row has 4 dots.
That means: 5 groups of 4 → 5 × 4 = 20
But wait — let’s check the options carefully:
Options:
- 20 × 5 = 4
✘
- 4 × 5 = 6
- 4 × 5 = 6
✘ (duplicate? probably typo in worksheet)
- 4 × 5 = 20
✔ ← this matches! Because 4 × 5 is same as 5 × 4 = 20
Note: Multiplication is commutative — order doesn’t change the answer. So 4 × 5 = 20 is correct even if we counted rows first.
Answer:
4 × 5 = 20

Problem 4:
We see 5 rows of dots, each with 3 dots → 5 × 3 = 15
Check options:
- 5 × 3 = 15
✔
- 5 × 3 = 24
✘
- 15 × 3 = 5
✘
- 5 × 3 = 24
Answer:
5 × 3 = 15
---
Problem 5:
We see 3 rows of cherries, each with 2 cherries → 3 × 2 = 6
Check options:
- 3 × 2 = 6
✔
- 3 × 2 = 10
✘
- 6 × 2 = 3
✘
- 3 × 2 = 10
✘
Answer:
3 × 2 = 6
---
Problem 6:
We see 3 rows of grapes, each with 4 grapes → 3 × 4 = 12
Check options:
- 3 × 4 = 12
✔
- 3 × 4 = 17
- 12 × 4 = 3
✘
- 3 × 4 = 17
✘
Answer:
3 × 4 = 12
---
Final Answer:
1. 2 × 2 = 4
2. 3 × 4 = 12
3. 4 × 5 = 20
4. 5 × 3 = 15
5. 3 × 2 = 6
6. 3 × 4 = 12
