The set S is any set. It doesn't anything to do with the rational
numbers or anything. And the element 1 is just an element of S, it's
not supposed to mean the number 1. Call it "e" or whatever.

But the only things you can assume about the element "1" and the
operator "/" are those two rules given in the question.
