True/False

Imagine you are a technical reviewer for an engineering software firm. You are auditing a module that simplifies the following rational expression: p3+q32p2+2pq+2q2รทp2โˆ’q26\frac{p^3 + q^3}{2p^2 + 2pq + 2q^2} \div \frac{p^2 - q^2}{6}. True or False: After factoring, the term (p2โˆ’pq+q2)(p^2 - pq + q^2) in the numerator and the term (p2+pq+q2)(p^2 + pq + q^2) in the denominator can be divided out because they are common factors.
