Solution

The correct option is B $[M^{2} L^{- 2} T^{2}] : [M L T^{- 2}]$
Given, $F = \frac{X}{d e n s i t y} + Y$
In order to maintain dimensional homogeneity
$X = f o r c e \times d e n s i t y$
$[M L T^{- 2}] \times [M L^{- 3}] = [M^{2} L^{- 2} T^{- 2}]$
also, $Y$ must have dimensions of $F$
$∴ Y = [M L T^{- 2}]$
