Write a program that multiplies an A matrix by a real X.

The elements of matrix A will be multiplied by X.

\(X \times \begin{pmatrix} a & b & c & d \\e & f & g & h \\ i & j & k & l \end{pmatrix}= \begin{pmatrix} X \times a & X \times b & X \times c & X \times d \\X \times e & X \times f & X \times g & X \times h \\ X \times i & X \times j & X \times k & X \times l \end{pmatrix}\)
