While I do know that dydx isn't a fraction and shouldn't be treated as such, in many situations, doing things like multiplying both sides by dx and integrating, cancelling terms, doing things like dydx=1dxdy works out just fine.
So I wanted to know: Are there any particular cases (in single-variable calculus) we have to look out for, where treating dydx as a fraction gives incorrect answers, in particular, at an introductory level?
Note: Please provide specific instances and examples where treating dydx as a fraction fails
