Math Problem Statement

Write the multiplication expression shown by the example submitted. Do not solve the problem:

Write the multiplication expression shown by the example submitted. Do not solve the problem.

Solution

The image you've provided shows a visual multiplication representation using rectangular arrays. Based on the layout, I can deduce that:

  • The green area forms a rectangle with dimensions of 3 rows and 7 columns.
  • The red area forms a rectangle with dimensions of 3 rows and 4 columns.
  • The blue area forms a rectangle with dimensions of 3 rows and 5 columns.

This suggests that the multiplication expression being represented is: (7+4+5)×3(7 + 4 + 5) \times 3

Do you need further details or have any questions about this? Here are some follow-up questions for better understanding:

  1. How do visual models like this help in understanding multiplication?
  2. What does each color region represent in terms of the multiplication process?
  3. Can you rewrite this expression using the distributive property?
  4. How could this diagram help with understanding the concept of area?
  5. Could this type of model be used for other arithmetic operations besides multiplication?

Tip: Using visual representations of multiplication can help clarify the distributive property and simplify large numbers into more manageable chunks.
