We have, $A = [\begin{array}{ccc} 3 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 3 \end{array}]$
co-factor matrix of A is,
$B = [\begin{array}{ccc} 9 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 9 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 9 \end{array}]$
Thus
$∴ Adj (A) = B^{T} = [\begin{array}{ccc} 9 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 9 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 9 \end{array}] = 3 [\begin{array}{ccc} 3 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 3 \end{array}] = 3 A$
