Correct Answer: $\frac{x}{2y}$


Solution : $\frac{1}{8}\left\{\left(x+\frac{1}{y}\right)^2-\left(x-\frac{1}{y}\right)^2\right\}$
$=\frac{1}{8}(x^2 +\frac{1}{y^2} + 2×x×\frac{1}{y} - x^2 - \frac{1}{y^2} + 2×x×\frac{1}{y})$
$=\frac{1}{8}(\frac{4x}{y})$
$=\frac{x}{2y}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{x}{2y}$.
