True.
Canceling a number in a fraction essentially means dividing both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) by that same number. This simplifies the fraction without changing its overall value. For example, in the fraction 6/8, you can "cancel" 2 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2, resulting in the simplified fraction 3/4.
true or false.
Canceling is just a shortcute for diving the top and bottom of a fraction by the number being canceled.
