The equation seems vague at description. It could be one of two equations -
+sqrt%28m%29%2F3+=+14+ or +sqrt%28m%2F3%29+=+14+

Let's take it to be +sqrt%28m%29%2F3+=+14+.
First, multiply both sides by 3, so you'll end up with +sqrt%28m%29+=+42+
Square both sides +%28sqrt%28m%29%29%5E2+=+42%5E2+ ---> +m+=+1764+

Let's take it to be +sqrt%28m%2F3%29+=+14+.
First, we'll have to square both sides +%28sqrt%28m%2F3%29%29%5E2+=+14%5E2+ ---> +m+%2F+3+=+196+
Solve for m: m = 588.
