No, it is not division either - that is the inverse function to multiplication - which is a different thing.

An element y, of a set is said to be the inverse of the element x in the set if x*y = y*x = i where i is the multiplicative identity for the set. y is denoted by x-1

In ordinary multiplication of numbers, i = 1.
