Solve the given equation to find the correct answer by factoring it then cancelling the common factors and simplify

y2+6y+5y2yy+1=(y+5)(y+1)yyyy+1=(y+5)(y+1)yyy(y+1)=(y+5)y\begin{aligned} \dfrac{y^2+6y+5}{y^2}\cdot\dfrac{y}{y+1}&=\dfrac{(y+5)(y+1)}{y\cdot y}\cdot\dfrac{y}{y+1}\\ &=\dfrac{(y+5)\cancel{(y+1)}}{y\cdot \cancel{y}}\cdot\dfrac{\cancel{y}}{\cancel{(y+1)}}\\ &=\dfrac{(y+5)}{y}\\ \end{aligned}

Choice BB is the correct answer
