Is this correct? - problem relating to a pendulum

Predict the time for 20 oscillations of a 1.0m long Pendulum on Planet U.


We know L = 1.0m g=6.91m/s2


T=2π N √L/g

T=2π (20) 1.0/6.91

= 150.18297

T = 150 seconds


If its correct than yay if not please tell me where I went wrong

It doesn't matter. Both are right. It is all about presision. You took square root. Third digit is not reliable any way
