(see below)

Explanation:

Consider the relationship between decreasing powers of any number.

If we let n be such a number then we see that (for example):
XXXn4=n5÷n

XXXn3=n4÷n

XXXn2=n3÷n

XXXn1=n2÷n

if we continue...
XXXn0=n1÷n (n.b. this is just n÷n=1)
and
XXXn1=n0÷n (that is 1÷n=1n; the reciprocal of n)
