Final answer:

By canceling out x^2 in both the numerator and the denominator of the expression x^2/yx^2, we get the simplified answer of 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression given is x^2/yx^2. To simplify it, we can divide both numerator and denominator by x^2, given that x is not equal to zero since division by zero is undefined. Canceling out x^2 in the numerator with x^2 in the denominator gives the simplified result.
