Let A = PQ. The elementary operation on A, that produces the same effect as it does on applying on P and keeping Q unchanged is :

(A) Ri↔RjR_i \leftrightarrow R_j

(B) Ri→Ri+KRjR_i \to R_i + KR_j

(C) Ci→KCiC_i \to KC_i

(D) Ci→Ci+KCjC_i \to C_i + KC_j

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

If A=PQA=PQ, row operations on PP correspond to row operations on AA (since PP multiplies from the left), keeping QQ unchanged.

Column operations on PP would not directly correspond. So row swaps and row combinations (A and B) work.
