Minors of each element can be obtained and is
labeled as Mn for minors of all Mia for minors
of 912 MB for minirs of a 3 and soon

To solve for the minors of a certain element we

need to cross out the row and column where that
particular element lies or belongs and get the
determinant of the remaining elements
