To multiply the numbers 3 and 24 using arrays, you can represent the numbers as rows and columns in an array format. Let's start by creating an array with 3 rows and 24 columns:

```
[
[_, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _],
[_, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _],
[_, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _]
]
```

Next, you can fill up each cell of the array with the value 1. This represents the number 1 being repeated 3 times in each row and 24 times in each column:

```
[
[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
]
```

Now, if you count the total number of cells in this array, you will get the product of 3 times 24:

3 x 24 = 72

So, the product of 3 times 24 is 72.
