  1. A \(6\)
  2. B \(36\)
  3. C \(216\)
  4. D \(1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(36\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\operatorname{det}(\operatorname{adj} A) = (\operatorname{det} A)^{n-1}\) \(\operatorname{det}(\operatorname{adj} A) = (6)^{3-1}\) \(\operatorname{det}(\operatorname{adj} A) = 6^2 = 36\)
