Step 1

State a law of indices that can be used to simplify the problem


\begin{gathered} a^{-1\text{ }}=(1)/(a^(-1)) \\ \end{gathered}

Step 2

Apply this to the question and get the solution


\begin{gathered} x^{-1\text{ }}=\text{ }(1)/(x) \\ \text{Hence} \\ (1)/(x).y^2^{} \\ =(y^2)/(x) \end{gathered}

Hence option B
