.
a)  Into each cell of the 3x3 matrix  (3A - 2B)  put the difference "3a - 2b" of the corresponding values from the corresponding cells 

    of the original matrices  A  and  B.


    There is NOTHING EASIER.



b)  Open your textbook.

    Read and learn the definition of the matrix product from there.


    Then complete your assignment on your own.
