TITLE: An interesting problem with fractions
QUESTION [6 upvotes]: These are a few examples of how "forbidden" procedures can lead us to the correct answer:
$$\displaystyle\frac{1\not4^1}{2\not8_2} = \frac{11}{22}=\frac{1}{2}$$
$$\displaystyle\frac{1\not3^1}{3\not9_3} = \frac{11}{33}=\frac{1}{3}$$
$$\displaystyle\frac{{\not3^1}0}{{\not6_2}0} = \frac{10}{20}=\frac{1}{2}$$
I am interested in the question does there exist a fraction such that it satisfies these $5$ requirements and such that it can be "solved" using this "technique"?

The numerator and denominator have $n$ digits where $5\leq n\leq9$
The number in numerator doesn`t end in $0$.
The number in denominator deosn´t end in $0$.  
All digits in number in numerator are different.
All digits in number in denominator are different.

EDIT1: The user found that it is possible for $n=5$, now I have a somewhat different version of the problem with modified first requirement:
1*. The numerator and denominator have $n$ digits where $6\leq n\leq9$
2.,3.,4.,5. Same as above.
I believe that now such fraction doesn`t exist and would be very pleased if someone shows that it is so or finds a counterexample in any of these two cases:
Case A) Only one cancellation is allowed.
Case B) More than one cancellation is allowed.
EDIT2: It seems that belief in non-existence of such fraction in the modified problem $6\leq n\leq9$ was a failure, below you can see that user Ivan Loh found the solution for the cases $n=6,7$ with one cancellation and solution for the case $n=8$ with two cancellations which is indeed more than I was asking, and, following his examples, I found the case for $n=8$ with one cancellation, it is $\displaystyle\frac {21945703}{65837109}=\frac {21945701}{65837103}=\frac {1}{3}$.

REPLY [2 votes]: I wrote some code to generate these kind of fractions. It's written in Python, so it's practically like pseudocode. Basically, I just brute-force over all numbers and simply validate whether it is a Howler fraction or not.

    for x in range(start, stop):
        for y in range(start, stop):
            if x == y:
                continue
            frac = validate(x, y)
            if frac:
                print(x, y, frac)

Executing $find(n)$ provides you with all the Howler fractions of size $n$, though it takes a bit if time to compute them all.
I improvised the algorithm a bit. Now, it takes a fraction finds valid equivalent fractions with the added restriction that the :
def find(frac):
    num = frac.numerator
    den = frac.denominator
    x = 1

    while True:
        x += 1
        num_ = num * x
        den_ = den * x
        frac = validate(num_, den_, strict=True)
        if frac:
            print(num_, den_, frac)

This gives more Howler fractions in significantly less time, although you can't find fractions of length $n$ upfront.
I ran the code on my machine but as soon as I started to paste the output on SE or any pastebin, Chrome froze. But you can run the code on your machine and try (It's Python 3 BTW).
Update: First few fractions of length 5 are here;
