    those are probably matrices and the numbers represent the entries in the matrix. the items across are called rows and the numbers down are called columns. count the number of items down and this will give the rows. then count the number of items across and this will give you the columns. this is normally then written as r x c where r is the number of rows and c is the number of columns.
