3 × 3 Matrix

Hi. I'd like to know how to find the inverse of a
3 × 3 Matrix.
Things like finding the adjoint matrix and the determinant of a 3 × 3 Matrix.

Many thanks in advance.

In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Thanks bobbym. The information is indeed helpful. Thanks.

How do we actually apply the study of Matrices in practical life. I am only wondering. Thanks.
