How are you supposed to keep a number in radical form if it is a whole over a square? Like 4/sqrt(2a)

This is not 4 over a square. It is 4 over a square root. Did you want to rationalize the denominator?
\(\frac{4}{\sqrt{2a}}\\ =\frac{4}{\sqrt{2a}}\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{\sqrt{2a}}\\ =\frac{4\sqrt{2a}}{2a}\\ =\frac{2\sqrt{2a}}{a} \)
