The Identity Property of Division simply states that any number divided by 1 will be that same number.

Division Into Zero Property states that any number divided into zero is zero, and that you cannot divide by zero.

Negative One Property of Division states that any number divided by negative one will be that same number, but negative.

Reciprocal Property of Division states (I believe) if you divide by a reciprocal of a number, you will get 1... I believe.
