Question

can we write like this:-
$\frac{x}{xy} = y$
can we cancel both x here?​

Answer 1

Answer:

If you cancel both x here, then the answer will be 1/y.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me explain it with an example:

2/2×3

1/3

Just like this, you have to write 1/y.

Hope u understand.

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes you can cancel those x

but result won't be y

instead it'll be 1/y

Giving you an example

$\frac{4}{4 \times 3} = \frac{4}{12} = \frac{1}{3}$

gives the same result as

$\frac{4}{4 \times 3} = \frac{1}{3}$

therefore should be a 1 therefore

therefore the correct answer is 1/y
