The number of columns in the first must match the number of rows in the second. As a bonus this will also give you the dimensions of the product matrix.

Hopefully, you can see that when the multiplication is reversed we get a different answer! That is very different to what we see in conventional arithmatic.

\n

With \"normal\" multiplication   $3 \\times 2 = 2 \\times 3$, we say that multiplication is commutative - the order does not matter. That is not the case with matrix multiplication.

\n

It is clear that $AB$ and $BA$ are not in general the same. In fact it is the exception that $AB = BA$. In the special case in which $AB = BA$ we say that the matrices $A$ and $B$ commute.
