If \( \mathrm{A} \) is a square matrix of order \( 3 \times 3 \), then \( |\mathrm{KA}| \) is equal to

  1. A \( |\mathrm{KA}| \)
  2. B \( \mathrm{K}^{2}|\mathrm{~A}| \)
  3. C \( \mathrm{K}^{3}|\mathrm{~A}| \)
  4. D 3K|A|
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( \mathrm{K}^{3}|\mathrm{~A}| \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that, matrix \(A\) of order \(3 \times 3\).
We know that, for a matrix of order \(n \times n\) we have
\(|K A|_{n \times n}=K^{n}|A|\)
Here \(n=3\), we get
\(|K A|_{3 \times 3}=K^{3}|A|\)
