Recognize that you can break apart square roots.
sqrt%283%2F64%29+=+sqrt%283%29+%2A+sqrt%281%2F64%29
Let's focus on sqrt%281%2F64%29.
We can rewrite sqrt%281%2F64%29+=+sqrt%281%2F8%5E2%29+=+sqrt%28%281%2F8%29%5E2%29
So we have sqrt%283%29+%2A+expr%281%2F8%29+=++sqrt%283%29%2F8
sqrt%283%29%2F8 is our answer.
