The diagram in the image shows a grid divided into 6 equal parts horizontally and 6 equal parts vertically, making it a 6x6 grid. Certain regions are shaded in blue, while others are marked with red diagonal lines.

1. The blue-shaded region represents 3 out of 6 parts vertically, which corresponds to \( \frac{3}{6} \).
2. The red-lined region covers 4 out of the 6 parts horizontally, which corresponds to \( \frac{4}{6} \).

Since the blue area and the red-lined area overlap in a smaller rectangular section, this represents multiplying the fractions of the areas they occupy. The correct multiplication sentence would be:

\[ \frac{3}{6} \times \frac{4}{6} \]

So, the correct answer is:

**3/6 × 4/6**.
