This math skill introduces the concept of multiplication as creating groups of equal size. It teaches visualizing multiplication by considering one number as the number of groups and the other as the number of items in each group.
🎙️
Let's explore what it means to multiply 3 and 5
🎙️
We can think of multiplication as being groups of items, so here we have 3 groups
🎙️
And each group has 5 items in it.
🎙️
Let's visualize what that looks like. 3 times 5 is 3 groups, each with 5 purple triangles
🎙️
If we count them, we have 5, then 10, then 15
🎙️
So 3 times 5 is equal to 15
