To solve this coloring worksheet, we need to calculate the answer for each multiplication problem and then match that answer to the color key at the top.
Step 1: Understand the Color Key
First, let's look at the legend to see which number matches which crayon color:
*
6: Dark Purple
*
7: Yellow
*
8: Red
*
9: Brown
*
10: Green
*
11: Dark Blue
*
12: Orange
Step 2: Solve the Multiplication Problems
Now, let's go through the picture section by section and figure out what color each part should be.
*
The Bird (Left Side):
* `3 x 2` = 6 $\rightarrow$
Dark Purple
* `7 x 1` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `1 x 6` = 6 $\rightarrow$
Dark Purple
* `3 x 4` = 12 $\rightarrow$
Orange
* `11 x 1` = 11 $\rightarrow$
Dark Blue
*
The Tree Trunk (Center):
* `6 x 1` = 6 $\rightarrow$
Dark Purple
* `1 x 7` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `11 x 1` = 11 $\rightarrow$
Dark Blue
* `5 x 2` = 10 $\rightarrow$
Green
* `10 x 1` = 10 $\rightarrow$
Green
*
The Leaves/Top Branches:
* `2 x 3` = 6 $\rightarrow$
Dark Purple
* `7 x 1` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `2 x 6` = 12 $\rightarrow$
Orange
* `4 x 3` = 12 $\rightarrow$
Orange
* `1 x 7` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `6 x 2` = 12 $\rightarrow$
Orange
* `7 x 1` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `1 x 12` = 12 $\rightarrow$
Orange
* `2 x 4` = 8 $\rightarrow$
Red
* `1 x 8` = 8 $\rightarrow$
Red
* `11 x 1` = 11 $\rightarrow$
Dark Blue
*
The Bottom Bushes/Rocks:
* `4 x 2` = 8 $\rightarrow$
Red
* `1 x 8` = 8 $\rightarrow$
Red
* `5 x 2` = 10 $\rightarrow$
Green
* `4 x 2` = 8 $\rightarrow$
Red
* `8 x 1` = 8 $\rightarrow$
Red
* `11 x 1` = 11 $\rightarrow$
Dark Blue
* `9 x 1` = 9 $\rightarrow$
Brown
* `3 x 3` = 9 $\rightarrow$
Brown
* `1 x 10` = 10 $\rightarrow$
Green
* `7 x 1` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `2 x 5` = 10 $\rightarrow$
Green
* `1 x 7` = 7 $\rightarrow$
Yellow
* `1 x 9` = 9 $\rightarrow$
Brown
Summary of Colors:
By solving all the math problems, you can now color the picture correctly using the list above. For example, any space with a "6" gets colored Dark Purple, any "7" is Yellow, and so on.
Final Answer:
Color the sections based on the answers:
6 is Dark Purple,
7 is Yellow,
8 is Red,
9 is Brown,
10 is Green,
11 is Dark Blue, and
12 is Orange.
