Many people have spent a significant amount of time on a proof for this, but here's the most straghtforward proof I can think of:
When you devide any number, you are dividing the number into units that are as big as you specify. For example, 10 / 2 divides ten into groups of 2. You'll end up with 5 groups, so 5 is the answer.
If you devide any number into groups of 1, you will end up with the same number.
Properties of Division: n/n =1, If n ≠ 0. Any number other than zero divided by itself is one.
1. Whenever you divide a number by itself, the answer is 1, except when dividing by zero.
Any real number (besides zero) divided by itself is equal to 1. In algebraic terms, if x is a non-zero real number then x/x=1. Zero is the exception because dividing a number by zero is undefined. For example 5 divided by itself is 1. 5/5=1

Think of it this way...how many times can you divide a number by itself? The answer is always once. 4 divided by 4 equals 1. Using the number 4, 8 divided by 4 equals 2. In other words, 8 is equal to two 4s, right? But one 4 is always one 4.
Any non-zero number divided by itself is equal to one.

Yes they are equal. Any number divided by itself equals 1
One. Because any number divided by itself equals one.
Any number, rational or irrational, can be divided by 1 and itself. A number divided by 1 does not change, and a number divided by itself is equal to 1. The definition of a rational number is a number which can be expressed as the ratio of two integers. So there is division involved, but not the kind you thought.
What is the only integer divided by itself that is not equal to one.
