Determine if the simplification below is correct:

$\frac{6\cdot3}{6\cdot3}=1$

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We simplify the expression on the left side of the approximate equality:

$\frac{\textcolor{red}{\not{6}}\cdot\textcolor{blue}{\not{3}}}{\textcolor{red}{\not{6}}\cdot\textcolor{blue}{\not{3}}}\stackrel{?}{= }1\\ \downarrow\\ 1\stackrel{!}{= }1$ therefore, the described simplification is correct.

Therefore, the correct answer is A.
