Analysis: This question examines the application of multiplication. The word "fire" consists of four paintings, and the word "Yan" consists of three paintings, that is, the strokes of "Yan" are three times that of "fire", which can be solved by column calculation.

4+4+4 = 4× 3 = 12. You are not familiar with multiplication at first, so you can do more equality exercises of multiplication and addition.

The problem solving process is as follows:

Solution:

4×3= 12 (painting)

A: Yan You 12 paintings.

Integer multiplication algorithm:

1, starting from the unit, multiply the first factor by the number on each bit of the second factor in turn;

2. Multiply the number on the second factor, and the last digit of the number will be aligned with the second factor;

3. Add up the numbers multiplied by several times.

Multiplication operation properties:

1, the product of several numbers is multiplied by a number, so that any factor in the product can be multiplied by this number and then multiplied by other numbers. For example: (25×3 × 9)×4=25×4×3×9=2700.

2. Multiply the difference between two numbers by a number, so that the minuend and the minuend can be multiplied by this number respectively, and then subtract the product. For example: (137-125) × 8 =137× 8-125× 8 = 96.
