I think maybe you are misunderstanding the problem. I do you mean
? This is actually 3 times the square root of 27!!

The answer is 3, because .

I have an entire lesson on this topic on algebra.com or you can also find this and more on my own website. Let me know if you need help finding the right pages for this.
