Because RISC contains only Load and Store instructions which involve memory and these instructions take only one Clock cycle and when it comes to arithmetic instructions, these involve only Registers. When instructions involve only Registers then those instructions are really fast and take at most one clock cycle. So Clock cylces Per Instruction is 1 for RISC processor
