Question
If a matrix has 8 elements, what are the possible orders it can have? What if it has 5 elements?

Answer

We know that if a matrix is of order m × n, then it has mn elements.
The possible orders of a matrix with 8 elements are given below:
1 × 8, 2 × 4, 4 × 2, 8 × 1
Thus, there are 4 possible orders of the matrix.
The possible orders of a matrix with 5 elements are given below:
1 × 5, 5 × 1 Thus, there are 2 possible orders of the matrix.
