Solution

The rank of a matrix is the maximum number of linearly independent rows or columns in the matrix. Since matrix A is row equivalent to matrix B, they have the same rank.

Looking at matrix B, we can see that there are 3 non-zero rows. Therefore, the rank of matrix A (and also matrix B) is 3.
