Multiplication

We have been making multiplication arrays in Maths.  

Did you know that ...

4 x 3 = 12        

and when you turn the problem around

3 x 4 = 12    

the answer is still the same,

So ...  3 x 4 = 4 x 3 

 5 x 2 = 10

 and 2 x 5 = 10   so...

5 x 2 = 2 x 5

 We used animal arrays to show multiplication problems
