When you multiply by 1, the same number is there, because your only putting up ONE of that number. For example, 3x1=3 because there's only one three there. 3x2=6 because there are two threes, and together they make six. if you STILL don't understand, lemme try to make it clearer. Multiplication=Division, right? Division is separating numbers into groups. 6/2=3 because you split the 6 into two groups of 3. 3/1=3 because you split it into ONE group of three.
