Answer

Since, addition and subtraction of matrices requires each matrix to be of same order.

∴ A + B and A - B are not possible.

AB is possible because no. of columns in A (2) is equal to no. of rows in B (2).

BA is not possible because no. of columns in B (1) is not equal to no. of rows in A (2).

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.
