The answer depends on which kind of Division you're asking about. Overall a Division, across most militaries (including today's US Army as well as the Armies of WWII era Germany), is made up of between 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers.

A Corp is an amalgam of Divisions. Divisions are are comprised of several Brigades or Regiments. In most militaries, a division tends to be the largest combined arms unit capable of independent operations; due to its self-sustaining role as a unit with a range of combat troops and suitable combat support forces, which can be divided into various organic combinations.

It should be noted that, while the focus of this article is on land-based military divisions, the military unit division also refers to a sub-unit of a department aboard Naval and Coast Guard ships and shore commands. In this usage, unit size varies widely, though typically divisions number less than 100 persons. In the U.S. Navy, a division officer (DIV-O) is usually an ensign who oversees a team of non-commissioned officers in their duties (although the purpose of this is generally regarded as being for the training of the ensign).
