Let $A$ be a square matrix all of whose entries are integers. Then which one of the following is true $?$

  • A
    If $\det(A) = \pm 1$ then $A^{-1}$ exists but all its entries are not necessarily integers.
  • B
    If $\det(A) = \pm 1$ then $A^{-1}$ exists and its entries are non-integers.
  • C
    If $\det(A) = \pm 1$ then $A^{-1}$ exists and its entries are integers.
  • D
    If $\det(A) = \pm 1$ then $A^{-1}$ need not exist.
