Provides an explanation, examples, and a video lesson all related to matrices. [5:31]

You can add and subtract matrices, multiply a matrix by a scalar, and multiply two matrices. So, what about division? Well, there isn't a division process for matrices. See this example for how to get around this problem!

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This lesson shows you how to determine if two matrices can be multiplied together and explains that the commutative property does not apply.
