Let me carefully examine the multiplication table and figure out what each icon represents.
The table is a 3×3 grid where:
- The top row shows column headers: football (orange), number 2, helmet (red)
- The left column shows row headers: football (orange), helmet (red), trophy (black)
Each cell contains either a number or an icon, and the value in each cell should equal the product of its row header and column header.
Let me label the icons with variables to solve:
Let:
- F = football (orange)
- H = helmet (red)
- T = trophy (black)
- S = shoe (blue)
- V = vest (blue, looks like a jersey/shoulder pads)
From the grid:
Row 1 (football, F) × Column 1 (football, F) = 1 → F × F = 1 → F² = 1 → F = 1 (since values are positive)
So football = 1.
Now, Row 1 (F = 1) × Column 2 (2) = shoe (S) → 1 × 2 = S → S = 2
So shoe = 2.
Row 1 (F = 1) × Column 3 (H) = helmet (H) → 1 × H = H → this is always true, no new info.
Row 2 (H) × Column 1 (F = 1) = 3 → H × 1 = 3 → H = 3
So helmet = 3.
Now check: Row 2 (H = 3) × Column 3 (H = 3) = 9 → 3 × 3 = 9 ✓ matches.
Row 3 (T) × Column 1 (F = 1) = 1 → T × 1 = 1? Wait — no! Look again.
Actually, row 3, column 1 is a trophy icon, and the value is
1? No — let me re-read the grid carefully.
Looking at the grid:
Top row (column headers): football, 2, helmet
Left column (row headers): football, helmet, trophy
Grid cells:
- (1,1): 1 → football × football = 1
- (1,2): shoe → football × 2 = shoe
- (1,3): helmet → football × helmet = helmet
- (2,1): 3 → helmet × football = 3
- (2,2): trophy → helmet × 2 = trophy
- (2,3): 9 → helmet × helmet = 9
- (3,1): trophy → trophy × football = ?
- (3,2): 12 → trophy × 2 = 12
- (3,3): vest → trophy × helmet = vest
Yes! That’s clearer.
So:
- (1,1): F × F = 1 → F = 1
- (2,1): H × F = 3 → H × 1 = 3 → H = 3
- (2,3): H × H = 9 → 3 × 3 = 9 ✓
- (3,2): T × 2 = 12 → T = 6
- (2,2): H × 2 = 3 × 2 = 6 → so trophy = 6 ✓ matches above
- (3,1): T × F = 6 × 1 = 6 → but the cell shows a trophy icon, not a number — that’s okay; it's representing 6.
- (3,3): T × H = 6 × 3 = 18 → so vest = 18
Also (1,2): F × 2 = 1 × 2 = 2 → shoe = 2
(1,3): F × H = 1 × 3 = 3 → but cell shows helmet icon, which equals 3 — consistent.
So final values:
- Football (orange) = 1
- Vest (blue) = 18
- Trophy (black) = 6
- Shoe (blue) = 2
- Helmet (red) = 3
The question asks: “Find the value of each icon” and below the grid there are 5 icons in order: football, vest, trophy, shoe, helmet — each with a blank box.
So answers in that order: 1, 18, 6, 2, 3
Final Answer:
1, 18, 6, 2, 3
