3. If Amy had 3 cats and each one had 4 legs, how could we find how many legs all the cats had?

4. =4 legs =12 legs +

5. Another way to figure out the answer is to multiply. Multiplication is a fast way to add equal numbers. Since all 3 cats have 4 legs, instead of adding them together, we could multiply.

6. 4 legs 3 cats 12 legs X

7. How many legs altogether would two boys have?

8. Can you think of a multiplication problem that shows this?

9. 2 boys 2 legs 4 legs X

10. If a crayon box holds 7 crayons, how many crayons would 2 boxes hold?

11. Can you think of a multiplication problem that shows this?

12. 2 boxes 7 crayons 14 crayons X

13. If every teacher has 3 books and there are 5 teachers, how many books do they all have?

14. Can you think of a multiplication problem that shows this?

15. 3 books 5 teachers 15 books X

16. If every desk has 1 apple and there are 9 desks, how many apples are there in all?

17. Can you think of a multiplication problem that shows this?

18. 1 apple 9 desks 9 apples X

19. Multiplication involves sets of objects. Can you write a multiplcation problem for these sets? I think I can do it!

20. 5 sets of 2 each

21. 5 X 2 =10

22. 3 sets of 4 each

23. 3 X 4 = 12

24. 3 sets of 3 each

25. 3 X 3 = 9

26. 4 sets of 2 each

27. 4 X 2 = 8

28. 6 sets of 3 each

29. 3 X 6 = 18

30. 5 sets of 4 each

31. 5 X 4 = 20

32. On your paper, draw sets to represent each of the following multiplication problems. Then solve the problems. Click on the to find the answer.

33. 2 X 9= 5 X 5= 8 X 1= 5 X 1= 4 X 0= 6 X 4=

34. 2 X 9=18 Lets try another!

35. 5 X 5= Lets try another!

36. 8 X 1= Lets try another!

37. 5 X 1= Lets try another!

38. 4 X 0= Lets try another!

39. 6 X 4=
