{facki} could work for that one, for example:

  mi facki le du'u makau xe fanva le jufra la lojban
  "I discovered how the sentence is translated into Lojban."

Or:

  mi facki le du'u cusku di'e bau la lojban ta'i makau
  "I discovered how to say the following in Lojban."

But "figure out" is actually more active than {facki}. Presumably
you had to put some effort into it, which {facki} does not require,
so your {snada} is good: {mi snada le nu facki...}, or even
{mi faksnada le du'u ...}
