ARRAY CREATOR APP- (A tool used to demonstrate that multiplication can be done in any order and that division is the inverse of multiplication. Write a multiplication maths story, then press '=' to create an array. Click on each column of the array and say 'That's time number 1. That's time number 2... etc. Rotate the array to demonstrate that multiplication can be done in any order.)
