Answer:

The required answer is
3 * a* a.

Explanation:

Consider the provided expression.


3a^2

The above expression can be written as:


3 * a^2

Now consider the above expression. The base "a" is raised to the power of 2 which is equal to the multiplication of "a" two times.

Thus the above expression can be written as:


3 * a* a

or


(3a)a

Hence, the required answer is
3 * a* a.
