You have the following expression;


\sqrt[]{(3)/(6)}

In order to simplify the previous expression you first simplify the fraction insde the root:


\sqrt[]{(3)/(6)}=\sqrt[]{(1)/(2)}

Next, you use the property that the square root of a fraction is equal to the quotient of the square roots:


\sqrt[]{(1)/(2)}=\frac{\sqrt[]{1}}{\sqrt[]{2}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}}

Then, you multiply both numerator and denominator by √2:


\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}}*\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{\sqrt[]{2}}=\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{2}

Hence, the result is:


\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{2}
