Pre-computation strategies when solving multiple linear equations with the same matrix?

Often in modeling, data processing, and optimization; the intensive portions of the code can often reduce to solving a lot of linear equations. e.g. solve for x1 in A x1 = b1 solve for x2 in A x2 =...

How is this number calculated?

I have numbers; A == 0x20000000 B == 18 C == (B/10) D == 0x20000004 == (A + C) A and D are in hex, but I'm not sure what the assumed numeric bases of the others are (although I'd assume base 10 ...
