That's related with:* The fact that 1 is the identity element of multiplication
* The fact that division is the inverse operation of multiplication.
Take any number, "n" (not equal to zero).
Take the statement that n / n = 1. To get the equivalent multiplication, turn it all around: 1 x n = n.
This is equivalent to stating that 1 is the "identity element" of multiplication.
