1 is always the result if you divide any number by itself

x/x = 1

(x+y)/(x+y) = 1

208/208 = 1

multiply a number by its inverse and the result is always 1

1/2 x 2 = 1

-1/3 x -3 = 1

104 x 1/104 = 1

just take a number and flip it "upside down" to get the inverse. 3/1 has an inverse of 1/3

1/x times x = 1
