\frac{1}{2}a\left(2\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{32}\right)\sqrt{3}=300
Factor 8=2^{2}\times 2. Rewrite the square root of the product \sqrt{2^{2}\times 2} as the product of square roots \sqrt{2^{2}}\sqrt{2}. Take the square root of 2^{2}.
\frac{1}{2}a\left(2\sqrt{2}+4\sqrt{2}\right)\sqrt{3}=300
Factor 32=4^{2}\times 2. Rewrite the square root of the product \sqrt{4^{2}\times 2} as the product of square roots \sqrt{4^{2}}\sqrt{2}. Take the square root of 4^{2}.
\frac{1}{2}a\times 6\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3}=300
Combine 2\sqrt{2} and 4\sqrt{2} to get 6\sqrt{2}.
\frac{6}{2}a\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3}=300
Multiply \frac{1}{2} and 6 to get \frac{6}{2}.
3a\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3}=300
Divide 6 by 2 to get 3.
3a\sqrt{6}=300
To multiply \sqrt{2} and \sqrt{3}, multiply the numbers under the square root.
3\sqrt{6}a=300
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3\sqrt{6}a}{3\sqrt{6}}=\frac{300}{3\sqrt{6}}
Divide both sides by 3\sqrt{6}.
a=\frac{300}{3\sqrt{6}}
Dividing by 3\sqrt{6} undoes the multiplication by 3\sqrt{6}.
a=\frac{50\sqrt{6}}{3}
Divide 300 by 3\sqrt{6}.
