Answer

$y=\dfrac{z^2}{t}$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of equality, in terms of $ y $, the given expression, $ \dfrac{y}{z}\div\dfrac{z}{t}=1 $, is equivalent to \begin{array}{l} \dfrac{y}{z}\cdot\dfrac{t}{z}=1 \\\\ \dfrac{yt}{z^2}=1 \\\\ \dfrac{z^2}{t}\cdot\dfrac{yt}{z^2}=1\cdot\dfrac{z^2}{t} \\\\ y=\dfrac{z^2}{t} .\end{array}
