Multiply the Matrices [[2,3],[6,5]]*[[4,2,4],[3,5,2],[2,1,3]]

Problem

[[2,3],[6,5]]*[[4,2,4],[3,5,2],[2,1,3]]

Solution

1. Check dimensions for matrix multiplication. The first matrix is 2×2 and the second matrix is 3×3

2. Identify the rule for matrix multiplication. For the product A*B to exist, the number of columns in A must equal the number of rows in B

3. Compare the values where the first matrix has 2 columns and the second matrix has 3 rows.

4. Conclude that since 2≠3 the matrices cannot be multiplied.

Final Answer

[[2,3],[6,5]]*[[4,2,4],[3,5,2],[2,1,3]]=Undefined
