See development and solution

Development:

Since the number of fractional digits is odd, a zero is added at the end, and the root of the number is calculated: 7836230.

The result is 7836230=2799,33.

The comma is moved two positions to the left, since there are two pairs of decimals, counting the added zero.

And so, a=27,99

Solution:

a=27,99
