Solve the equation for x.
square root of 27 divided by the square root of 48=x
x = sqrt%2827%29%2Fsqrt%2848%29
Factor inside the radicals to reveal some perfect squares
x = sqrt%289%2A3%29%2Fsqrt%2816%2A3%29
Extract the square root of those perfect squares
x = %283%2Asqrt%283%29%29%2F%284%2Asqrt%283%29%29
The square root of 3's cancel leaving
x = 3%2F4
