Matrices
If a matrix has 24 elements, what are the possible orders it can have? What, if it has 13 elements?
We know that a matrix of order m x n has mn elements. Therefore, for finding all possible orders of a matrix with 24 elements, w e will find all ordered pairs with products of elements as 24.
∴ all possible ordered pairs are
(1, 24), (24. 1), (2, 12), (12. 2). (3, 8), (8, 3), (4. 6), (6, 4)
∴ possible orders are
1 x 24. 24 x 1, 2 x 12, 12 x 2, 3 x 8, 8 x 3, 4 x 6. 6 x 4
If number of elements =13, then possible orders are 1 x 13, 13 x l.
