Answer

$\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{2xy^2}}{xy}$

Work Step by Step

Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by an expression equal to $1$ which will make the denominator a perfect power of the index, the given expression, $ \dfrac{\sqrt[3]{14}}{\sqrt[3]{7x^2y}} ,$ is equivalent to \begin{align*}\require{cancel} & \dfrac{\sqrt[3]{14}}{\sqrt[3]{7x^2y}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{7^2xy^2}}{\sqrt[3]{7^2xy^2}} \\\\&= \dfrac{\sqrt[3]{686xy^2}}{\sqrt[3]{7^3x^3y^3}} \\\\&= \dfrac{\sqrt[3]{343\cdot2xy^2}}{\sqrt[3]{(7xy)^3}} \\\\&= \dfrac{\sqrt[3]{(7)^3\cdot2xy^2}}{7xy} \\\\&= \dfrac{7\sqrt[3]{2xy^2}}{7xy} .\end{align*} Hence, the simplified form of the given expression is $ \dfrac{\sqrt[3]{2xy^2}}{xy} $.
