This property is called the identity property of multiplication; 1 is said to be the multiplicative identity.
Consider the definition of multiplication as repeated addition: 2 · 3 = 6 because 2 + 2 + 2 = 6. 6 · 5 = 30 because 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 30. When multiplying by 1, you are adding the factor exactly once; hence, 2 · 1 = 2 because 2 = 2, and 5 · 1 = 5 because 5 = 5, etc.

A conversion factor is a fraction that is always equal to 1. This allows you to convert between different units by multiplying the quantity you have by the conversion factor.
cross product method is multiplying the numerator of the first factor to the denominator of the second factor and multiplying the denominator to the numerator of the second factor.
the same as the number you are multiplying yes i quite agree because for example,if 1 is the factor of 7, the product will be 7, but if 2, the product will be 14.
