If `A=[{:(5,4),(2,3):}]" and "B=[{:(3,5,1),(6,8,4):}]`, find AB and BA whichever exists.

Answer» Here, A is a `2xx2` matrix and B is a `2xx3` matrix.
Clearly, the number of column in A =number of rows in B.
`:.` AB exists and it is a `2xx3` matrix.
`AB=[{:(5,4),(2,3):}][{:(3,5,1),(6,8,4):}]`
`=[{:(5.3+4.6,5.5+4.8,5.1+4.4),(2.3+3.6,2.5+3.8,2.1+3.4):}]`
`=[{:(15+24,25+32,5+16),(6+18,10+24,2+12):}]=[{:(39,57,21),(24,34,14):}].`
Again, B is a `2xx3` matrix and A is a `2xx2` matrix.
`:.` number of columns in `Bne` number of rows in A.
So, BA does not exist.
