Physics question?? dimensionally correct eqn?

Question:how can i simplify this equation to make it dimensionally correct?

T = 2(pi) *radical* L/G

i know that L/G is really (m/s^2) and T = s, but i don't know what to do after that...THANKS!

Answers:
Ah yes, the equation for the period of a simple pendulum.

Actually, L is meters and G is m/s^2. So if you re-wrote the equation, you'd have

T = 2*pi*(m / (m/s^2))^(1/2)

The m cancels out, and the s^2 moves to the numerator, so you'd have *radical*s^2...which is just s.
