This is in fraction format. The ---- is the division line. Imagine the √() is the radical sign.

√(48n^6)

-------------

√(6n^3)

Can someone explain please!?

  1. Sqrt(48n^6)

    -----------------  means sqrt(48n^6/6n^3)

    Sqrt(6n^3)

    =>sqrt(48/6*n^6/n^3)

    =>sqrt(8*n^(6-3))

    =>sqrt(8*n^3)

    =>sqrt(2^3*n^3)

    =>sqrt((2n)^3)

    Are you sure it is a square root and not a cube root?

    If it's a cube root you can go further and do this

    cuberoot((2n)^3) means ((2n)^3)^1/3

    =>2n

    If it's a square root though, the final answer would just be ((2n)^3)^1/2

    or the square root of (2n) cubed
