sqrt%2815%2F24y%5E5%29
sqrt%2815%29%2F%28sqrt%2824%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
sqrt%283%2A5%29%2F%28sqrt%283%2A4%2A2%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%283%29sqrt%285%29%29%2F%28sqrt%283%29sqrt%284%29sqrt%282%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%285%29%29%2Fsqrt%284%29sqrt%282%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%285%29%29%2F2sqrt%282%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29

now this is an answer, but it depends how far you want to go...it is usual to not have any sqrt on the denominator...so:

%28%28sqrt%285%29%29%2F%282sqrt%282%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29%29+%2A+%28%28sqrt%282%29%29%2F%28sqrt%282%29%29%29
%28sqrt%285%29sqrt%282%29%29%2F%282%2Asqrt%282%29sqrt%282%29sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%285%29sqrt%282%29%29%2F%282%2A2%2Asqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%285%29sqrt%282%29%29%2F%284sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%285%2A2%29%29%2F%284sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29
%28sqrt%2810%29%29%2F%284sqrt%28y%5E5%29%29

the square root can be written as a power --> 1/2, so we can write:

%28sqrt%2810%29%29%2F4%28y%5E%285%2F2%29%29 or... %28sqrt%2810%29%28y%5E%28-5%2F2%29%29%29%2F4
