Matrix Multiply Calculator

How to Use the Matrix Multiplication Calculator

This Matrix Multiplication Calculator allows you to multiply two matrices by entering their dimensions and values. Follow these detailed steps to ensure you input the necessary data correctly and get the desired result.

Step 1: Define the Dimensions of Matrix 1

• Matrix 1 Rows: Enter the number of rows for Matrix 1. This value must be a whole number between 1 and 5.
• Matrix 1 Columns: Enter the number of columns for Matrix 1. This value must be a whole number between 1 and 5.

Step 2: Define the Dimensions of Matrix 2

• Matrix 2 Rows: Enter the number of rows for Matrix 2. This value must be a whole number between 1 and 5.
• Matrix 2 Columns: Enter the number of columns for Matrix 2. This value must be a whole number between 1 and 5.

Note: Make sure the number of columns in Matrix 1 is equal to the number of rows in Matrix 2, as matrix multiplication is only possible when these dimensions match.

Step 3: Input Matrix Values

• Matrix 1 Values: Enter the elements of Matrix 1 as a comma-separated list. Ensure the number of elements matches the product of rows and columns defined in Step 1.
• Matrix 2 Values: Enter the elements of Matrix 2 as a comma-separated list. Ensure the number of elements matches the product of rows and columns defined in Step 2.

Step 4: Check Dimension Compatibility

After entering the dimensions and values, the calculator will automatically assess the compatibility of the matrices for multiplication. Look at the Dimension Compatibility section for a message confirming if the matrices can be multiplied.

Step 5: View the Result

Finally, if the matrices are compatible for multiplication, the calculator will display the Result Matrix and its dimensions. Check the Result Matrix section to see the product of the two matrices based on the values you provided, and the Result Matrix Dimensions to confirm the dimensions of your result.
