5sqrt(3a) is 5 times the square root of 3a. Use this format. Use parentheses to avoid confusion and send the question in again.

Hi Susan,
I'm a bit confused. Please re-post the problem following these guidelines so there are no misundertandings:

1. Start the problem with three opening brackets. {
2. End the problem with three closing brackets. }
3. Leave no spaces between terms
4. When expressing a square root, type: sqrt
5. Immediately after sqrt, type an opening parenthesis. (
6. Type the expression inside the square root.
7. Immediately after the square root expression, type a closing parenthesis. )
8. The closing parenthesis will separate the contents of the square root from what comes after it.
9. To express exponents, you type them like this: x^2 and it would look like this x%5E2. (You can find the ^ symbol by pressing shift+6.)
