Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the correct answer on each line.
1. 3 x 4 = 12
3 x 4 is 3 groups of 4, and 4 + 4 + 4 = 12.
2. 5 x 5 = 25
Skip count by 5 five times: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, so 5 x 5 = 25.
3. 2 x 1 = 2
2 x 1 is 2 groups of 1, and 1 + 1 = 2.
4. 4 x 5 = 20
4 groups of 5 is 5 + 5 + 5 + 5, which adds up to 20.
5. 1 x 1 = 1
1 group of 1 holds just one item, so the total is 1.
