How about you giving this one a try ?
Just follow the steps they told you to take,
let me know what you get, and how you got it.

No, you did not follow the instructions,
it says ...
take the square root of each number , THEN add them up, so
√a + √36 + √ 16 + √9 = 15
√a + 6 + 4 + 3 = 15
√a = 2
a = 4
