Multiplication arrays are a visual way to understand multiplication. Imagine arranging objects in rows and columns. The number of rows multiplied by the number of columns gives you the total number of objects. Arrays help make multiplication easier to understand and solve!
For example, an array with 3 rows and 4 columns represents $3 \times 4 = 12$. It's like having 3 groups of 4 objects each!
