And it's wrong not only because it is clearly enfactored (at least one factor of 2, that is visible in the first vector). The full explanation of why this is the wrong answer is beyond the scope of this example. However, if we now follow through with the instructions described above, we can find the correct answer. | And it's wrong not only because it is clearly enfactored (at least one factor of 2, that is visible in the first vector).

'''1. Find the linear dependence basis.''' We know where to start: first find the <span style="color: #3C8031;"><math>L_{\text{dep}}</math></span> and put each of these two mappings into a form that includes it explicitly. In this case, their <span style="color: #3C8031;"><math>L_{\text{dep}}</math></span> consists of a single vector: <span style="color: #3C8031;">{{ket|{{map|19 30 44 53}}}}</span>. | '''1.

'''2. Reproduce the original temperament.''' The original matrices had two vectors, so as our second step, we pad out these matrices by drawing from vectors from the original matrices, starting from their first vectors, so now we have [<span style="color: #3C8031;">{{map|19 30 44 53}}</span> {{map|1 0 -4 -13}}⟩ and [<span style="color: #3C8031;">{{map|19 30 44 53}}</span> {{map|1 0 -4 17}}⟩. We could choose any vectors from the original matrices, as long as they are <span style="color: #B6321C;">linearly independent</span> from the ones we already have; if one is not, skip it and move on. In this case the first vectors are both fine, though. | '''2. Reproduce the original temperament.'''
