Writing Multiplication Expressions: Counting Equal Groups and Objects

This video tutorial teaches how to write multiplication expressions by counting equal groups and objects in each group. It explains the concept of multiplication as adding equal groups, using arrays, and real-life examples like juice boxes and apples. The tutorial demonstrates how to write multiplication equations and apply them to solve problems efficiently, avoiding the common mistake of counting individual objects.
