Let’s solve this step by step.
We need to multiply the numbers in each section of the picture, then match the answer to the color key at the top.
Here’s the color key:
- 13 → Black
- 14 → Dark Pink
- 15 → Light Blue
- 16 → Green
- 17 → Dark Purple
- 18 → Light Purple
- 19 → Light Pink
- 20 → Orange
Now let’s go through some examples from the image and calculate them:
Top row (left to right):
- 19 x 1 = 19 → Light Pink
- 2 x 10 = 20 → Orange
- 4 x 5 = 20 → Orange
- 7 x 2 = 14 → Dark Pink
- 19 x 1 = 19 → Light Pink
Next row down:
- 5 x 4 = 20 → Orange
- 2 x 7 = 14 → Dark Pink
- 6 x 3 = 18 → Light Purple
- 2 x 9 = 18 → Light Purple
- 3 x 6 = 18 → Light Purple
- 4 x 5 = 20 → Orange
- 2 x 7 = 14 → Dark Pink
Middle circle area:
- 18 x 1 = 18 → Light Purple
- 9 x 2 = 18 → Light Purple
- 2 x 9 = 18 → Light Purple
Body sections:
- 10 x 2 = 20 → Orange
- 18 x 1 = 18 → Light Purple
- 15 x 1 = 15 → Light Blue
- 13 x 1 = 13 → Black
- 5 x 3 = 15 → Light Blue
- 9 x 2 = 18 → Light Purple
- 11 x 18? Wait — that can’t be right. Let me check again.
Actually, looking carefully: it says “9 x 2” and “11 x 18”? No — probably “9 x 2” and “1 x 18”? Or maybe “11 x 1” and “8”? Let me re-read.
Wait — actually, in the tail area, we see:
- 3 x 6 = 18 → Light Purple
- 15 x 1 = 15 → Light Blue
- 1 x 13 = 13 → Black
- 3 x 5 = 15 → Light Blue
- 1 x 15 = 15 → Light Blue
- 6 x 3 = 18 → Light Purple
- 8 x 2 = 16 → Green
Also:
- 19 x 1 = 19 → Light Pink (appears multiple times)
- 4 x 5 = 20 → Orange
- 7 x 2 = 14 → Dark Pink
- 2 x 7 = 14 → Dark Pink
- 16 x 1 = 16 → Green
- 2 x 8 = 16 → Green
- 9 x 2 = 18 → Light Purple
- 4 x 4 = 16 → Green
- 1 x 16 = 16 → Green
- 20 x 1 = 20 → Orange
- 1 x 19 = 19 → Light Pink
- 4 x 4 = 16 → Green
- 8 x 2 = 16 → Green
I think I’ve covered most. The main thing is: every multiplication problem gives a product between 13 and 20, which matches the color key.
So to complete the worksheet, you would:
1. Multiply the two numbers in each shape.
2. Find that number in the color key.
3. Color that shape with the matching crayon color.
For example:
- If you see “5 x 4”, that’s 20 → color it Orange.
- If you see “6 x 3”, that’s 18 → color it Light Purple.
- If you see “19 x 1”, that’s 19 → color it Light Pink.
You do this for every single section until the whole picture is colored!
Final Answer:
To solve the worksheet, multiply each pair of numbers in the shapes, then use the color key to color each section based on the product. For example: 5 × 4 = 20 → Orange; 6 × 3 = 18 → Light Purple; 19 × 1 = 19 → Light Pink. Repeat for all sections to reveal the colored monster.
