As we saw in the preceding question (selection C) this matrix is not reduced because the leading entry in row 2 does not have its column cleared:
![]() |
7 |
![]() |
||||
4 |
||||||
We therefore need to clear that column by pivoting. The only row that needs to change is Row 1, so we obtain
|
|
|
Now you can check that the matrix on the right is row-reduced.
