per second
usually it is called hertz (1/s). hertz is defined as cycle per second. cycle does not have any unit of measurement. so cycle per second is 1/s

If a wave is travelling at a certain speed in meters per second, and you divide by the wavelength in meters, you will get the frequency of the wave in inverse seconds (hertz). Hertz to divide, I know.

m / sec * 1 / m
gives you 1 / sec, or 1 hertz

m/s/m=1/s
this is frequency which is written as hertz...

(m/s)/m = (m/s)/(m/1) = (m/s)*(1/m) = (m)/(ms) = 1/s = s^-1
