What is when you combine equal groups to find how many in all?

When you combine equal groups to find out how many there are in total, you are performing multiplication. This process involves taking the number of groups and multiplying it by the number of items in each group to calculate the total. For example, if you have 4 groups of 3 apples each, you would multiply 4 by 3 to find that there are 12 apples in all. This method helps simplify counting and can be applied in various mathematical contexts.
