Multiplication Arrays Worksheet

Array of dots showing multiplication

🎯 WALT: Understand multiplication as repeated addition

Success Criteria:

  • I can explain multiplication using arrays
  • I can create arrays to represent multiplication problems
  • I can identify repeated addition facts that correspond to multiplication sentences

📊 Part 1: Understanding Arrays

1. Look at this array: ● ● ● ●
                             ● ● ● ●
                             ● ● ● ●
Which multiplication equation does this represent?

3 × 4 = 12

4 × 3 = 12

2 × 6 = 12

12 × 1 = 12

2. The repeated addition sentence for 5 × 3 is:

5 + 5 + 5

3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3

5 + 3

5 × 3

3. Which of these could represent the same multiplication problem? (Select all that apply)

4 rows of 6

6 groups of 4

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4

6 + 6 + 6 + 6

4. Complete the pattern: 2 × 7 = 7 + _____ = _____

2 × 7 = 7 + _________ = _________

6. Draw an array to show 4 × 6. Use dots or circles.

Write the repeated addition: ___________________

7. Look at your arrays for questions 5 and 6. Explain in your own words how an array helps you understand multiplication.
