homework and exercises - Can we find a vector if its dot product and cross product with another vector is given?


If I have two vectors $\vec{b}$ and $\vec{v}$, and I know that $$ \vec{b} \times \vec{v} = \vec{c} $$ and $$ \vec{b}\cdot\vec{v} = \lambda $$ can I find the $\vec{v}$ vector in terms of the $\vec{c}$ vector, $\vec{b}$ vector, and $\lambda$? I have been struggling with for quite sometime. And I hope it's time I asked for help.
