No, demnominators do not cancel when multiplying fractions. This is a very common mistake students make when they do fractions. In your question, the denominator is 1 for both 38 x 58 because you can see this as: 38/1 and 58/1. The 1s will not cancel. However, this will be different if your question was "what is 38 x 1/58?". This is the same thing as saying 38/58. You can simplify this one by finding a common factor.
To find the highest common factor you first need to break the numbers down into their prime factors. In this case 34 and 58 are broken down as follows: 34 = 2x17 58 = 2x29 The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this case, the only common prime factor is a single 2. Therefore the highest common factor of 34 and 58 is 2.
It is: 34/116 = 17/58
