• Count the rows, then count how many are in each row: 11 rows of 12 makes 11 × 12 = 132.
• As repeated addition that is 12 added 11 times: 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + … = 132.
• Turning the array on its side does not change the total, which is the commutative property: 11 × 12 = 12 × 11 = 132.
• The same picture shows the two division facts as well: 132 ÷ 11 = 12 and 132 ÷ 12 = 11.
