To determine the multiplication equation represented by the place-value blocks, we must first calculate the value of one group of the blocks described.

Each group consists of:

  • 1 hundred = 100
  • 4 tens = 40
  • 4 ones = 4

Adding those together, the total value of one group is:

\[ 100 + 40 + 4 = 144 \]

Since the question mentions that there are three groups of these blocks, we calculate the multiplication as follows:

\[ 3 \times 144 = 432 \]

Thus, the correct multiplication equation represented by the place-value blocks is:

3 × 144 = 432.
