$A$A, $B$B and $C$C are matrices such that $AB=C$AB=C. Using matrix algebra, fill in the gaps to solve for matrix $B$B.

Multiply both sides of the equation by the inverse of $\editable{}$: $\left(\editable{}\right)^{-1}\editable{}B=\left(\editable{}\right)^{-1}C$()1B=()1C
The product of any matrix and its inverse results in the identity matrix: $\editable{}B=\left(\editable{}\right)^{-1}C$B=()1C
The product of any matrix and the identity matrix is the matrix itself: $\editable{}=\left(\editable{}\right)^{-1}C$=()1C
