Morphology

uncanceled = canceled (transparent) = un + cancel + ed

Clear negative formation; in arithmetic/algebra contexts 'uncanceled' denotes terms not eliminated by cancellation, a direct extension of the negative meaning.

Etymology

Uncanceled in math uses the same parts un- 'not' and cancel 'to cross out equal parts', like when you cancel numbers in a fraction. So uncanceled terms are those 'not crossed out' and that still remain after you simplify an equation.
