What is the difference between "Copy" and "Cut" in a word processing document? How can you insert page number in a Word document? Write.

Copy and Cut are editing operations that place selected text or another object on the Clipboard, a temporary storage area. Copy is used to duplicate content, whereas Cut is normally used to move it. In both cases, Paste inserts the Clipboard content at the required destination.

Basis	Copy	Cut
Purpose	Duplicates selected content	Moves selected content
Effect at the original position	Original remains unchanged	Original is removed from its current position
Keyboard shortcut	Ctrl + C	Ctrl + X
Completion	Paste with Ctrl + V at the destination	Paste with Ctrl + V at the destination
Typical use	Repeating a heading or paragraph	Reorganizing text within a document

For example, copying the heading “Annual Progress Report” from page 1 and pasting it on page 2 leaves the heading on both pages. Cutting and pasting it removes it from page 1 and places it on page 2.

Steps to insert a page number in Microsoft Word
