Answer

$\color{blue}{\dfrac{7}{y}}$

Work Step by Step

Factor the binomials, then cancel common factors to obtain: $\require{cancel} =\dfrac{y^2(y+1)}{7} \cdot \dfrac{7(7)}{y^3(y+1)} \\=\dfrac{\cancel{y^2}\cancel{(y+1)}}{\cancel{7}} \cdot \dfrac{7\cancel{(7)}}{\cancel{y^3}y\cancel{(y+1)}} \\=\color{blue}{\dfrac{7}{y}}$
