sqrt(xy^2)xy2

Explanation:

Since both radicals have the same index (2), you can combine them under one radical symbol:

sqrt(x^2y^3z)/sqrt(xyz)x2y3zxyz
=sqrt[(x^2y^3z)/(xyz)]=x2y3zxyz

You can now cancel the denominator:

sqrt[(x^2y^3z)/(xyz)]x2y3zxyz
=sqrt[(x^cancel2y^(cancel3^2)cancelz)/cancel(xyz)]
=color(red)(sqrt(xy^2))
