Replace $R_{1}$ (row $1$ ) with the row operation $R_{1} = \frac{1}{9} R_{1}$ in order to convert some elements in the row to the desired value $1$ .

$[\begin{array}{c} \frac{1}{9} R_{1} & \frac{1}{9} R_{1} \\ 5 & 2 \end{array}]$

$R_{1} = \frac{1}{9} R_{1}$

Replace $R_{1}$ (row $1$ ) with the actual values of the elements for the row operation $R_{1} = \frac{1}{9} R_{1}$ .

$[\begin{array}{c} (\frac{1}{9}) \cdot (9) & (\frac{1}{9}) \cdot (6) \\ 5 & 2 \end{array}]$

$R_{1} = \frac{1}{9} R_{1}$

Simplify $R_{1}$ (row $1$ ).

Pivot columns are the columns, which contains pivot positions, so those pivot columns are $1, 2$ .

$1, 2$

A pivot position in a matrix is a position that after row reduction contains a leading $1$ . Thus, the leading one in the pivot columns $1, 2$ are the pivot positions.

The leading $1 s$ in the pivot columns $1, 2$ are the pivot positions
