Attorney, Agent or Firm:

A math game and method includes a game board having a plurality of elongated slots therein. Each of the slots defines a row arranged in a plurality of columns. The columns each have a number of rows therein equal to a number of columns provided. A plurality of different multiplier indicia is positioned on the game board and positioned adjacent to one of the columns. A plurality of multiplicand indicia is positioned on the game board and positioned adjacent to one of the left ends of the rows. The columns each include multiplicand indicia beginning with a numeral 1 and progressing by one for each subsequent row. Each of a plurality of game pieces is mounted in one of the slots and is selectively positioned along a length thereof. A random number indicator indicates a number between 1 and a number equal to the number of the columns.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a game board that has a top surface and a peripheral edge.
The top surface has a plurality of elongated slots therein.
Each of the slots defines a row that is positioned in one of a plurality of columns.

A plurality of multiplier indicia is positioned on the game board.
Each of the multiplier indicia is positioned adjacent to one of the columns.
Each of the multiplier indicia is a different numeral beginning with 1 and increasing to a number equal to the number of columns.
A plurality of multiplicand indicia is positioned on the game board.
Each of the multiplicand indicia is positioned adjacent to one of the left ends of the rows such that each of the rows has an adjacent one of the multiplicand indicia.
The columns each include multiplicand indicia beginning with a numeral 1 positioned adjacent to an uppermost row of the column and increasing by one for each subsequent row to a lowermost row of the column.
Each of a plurality of game pieces is mounted in one of the slots.
The game pieces are selectively positioned adjacent to the right or left ends of the rows.
A random number indicator indicates a number between 1 and a number equal to the number of the columns.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated.
There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
