#sqrt3#

Explanation:

If we have #3/sqrt(3)#, we first remember that #3 = sqrt(3)^2# so we rewrite that on the fraction

#(sqrt(3)*cancel(sqrt(3)))/cancel(sqrt(3))#

We have a #sqrt3# left that we can't do anything else. We could evaluate it but it's bad form and 99% of time leaving it like this will be OK.
