To add matrices, both matrices must be the same dimensions(rows by columns).
To multiply matrices, the dimensions of both matrices must match like so: (Matrix 1: A x B, Matrix 2: B x C. If both B's match, dimensions of resulting matrix will be A x C).
Multiplying matrices is too complicated to explain with words, so I'll just show you.
Ex 1.
A = [ 3 8 1 ] B = [ 2 0 9 ]
.......[ 4 0 -3 ] [ 4 -6 -5 ]
.......[ -2 1 5 ] [ 0 7 2 ]
Dimensions are 3 x 3.
Find A^t and B^t.
A^t = [ 3 4 -2] B^t = [ 2 4 0 ]
...........[ 8 0 1 ] [ 0 -6 7 ]
...........[ 1 -3 5 ] [ 9 -5 2 ]
A + B = [ 5 8 10]
..............[ 8 -6 -8 ]
..............[ -2 8 7 ]
