	Divide it by what? A scalar... Another square matrix of the same
size... Or a square matrix of a different size (is that even
possible?)...

	Based
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_%28mathematics%29#Division_of_matrices
 upon, I can understand where the need for the inverse comes from -- and
multiplication by the inverse gives the "division". Next up,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invertible_matrix#Inversion_of_2.C3.972_matrices
gives direct formulations for 2x2 and 3x3 matrices.
