Simple random sampling gives every unit an equal chance. With NN units, one is chosen at the first draw, so each unit's probability is 1N\frac{1}{N}.

Reasoning. In simple random sampling (without replacement) from a population of NN units, all units are equally likely to be selected. At the first draw there are NN equally likely units and exactly one is pick …
