Answer:

Option d)  Is an alternative method to reducing fractions to the lowest terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cancellation Method:

  • It is a method of reducing the fraction to the lowest term.
  • In this method, we reduce or divide both the numerator and the denominator with the greatest common divisor.
  • So that the numerator and denominator cannot be further reduce.
  • Or simply reducing the numerator and denominator with common factors such that they cannot be divided further.
  • This is known as simplifying of fraction.
  • The resultant fraction is the fraction in simplest or lowest term.

Thus, cancellation method

Option d)  Is an alternative method to reducing fractions to the lowest terms.
