You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm not sure what your expression is, but I will assume it is
(1) sqrt%28m%2Fa%5E%282%2Am%29%29
Here's a powerful identity for you to remember
(2) sqrt%28a%2Fb%29+=+sqrt%28a%29%2Fsqrt%28b%29
Apply this to (1) and get
(3) sqrt%28m%2Fa%5E%282%2Am%29%29+=+sqrt%28m%29%2Fsqrt%28a%5E%282%2Am%29%29 or
(4) sqrt%28m%2Fa%5E%282%2Am%29%29+=+sqrt%28m%29%2Fa%5Em
Answer:sqrt%28m%2Fa%5E%282%2Am%29%29+=+sqrt%28m%29%2Fa%5Em
