Simplify x/(y/x)

$\frac{x}{\frac{y}{x}}$

Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator.

$x \frac{x}{y}$

Multiply $x \frac{x}{y}$ .

Combine $x$ and $\frac{x}{y}$ .

$\frac{x \cdot x}{y}$

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$\frac{x^{1} x}{y}$

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$\frac{x^{1} x^{1}}{y}$

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$\frac{x^{1 + 1}}{y}$

Add $1$ and $1$ .

$\frac{x^{2}}{y}$
