Observationally, for neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries, so far, the correlation between the radio luminosity L_R and the X-ray luminosity L_X, i.e. L_ R_∝L_ X_^β^, has been reasonably well-established only in three sources 4U 1728-34, Aql X-1, and EXO 1745-248 in their hard state. The slope β of the radio/X-ray correlation of the three sources is different, i.e. β ∼ 1.4 for 4U 1728-34, β ∼ 0.4 for Aql X-1, and β ∼ 1.6 for EXO 1745-248. In this paper, for the first time we explain the different radio/X-ray correlation of 4U 1728-34, Aql X-1, and EXO 1745-248 with the coupled advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF)-jet model, respectively. We calculate the emergent spectrum of the ADAF-jet model for L_X and L_R at different {dot}m ({dot}m={dot}M/{dot}M_ Edd_), adjusting η (η≡{dot}M_ jet_/{dot}M, describing the fraction of the accreted matter in the ADAF transferred vertically forming the jet) to fit the observed radio/X-ray correlations. Then, we derive a fitting formula of η as a function of {dot}m for 4U 1728-34, Aql X-1, and EXO 1745-248, respectively. If the relation between η and {dot}m can be extrapolated down to a lower value of {dot}m, we find that in a wide range of {dot}m, the value of η in Aql X-1 is greater than that of in 4U 1728-34 and EXO 1745-248, implying that Aql X-1 may have a relatively stronger large-scale magnetic field, which is supported by the discovery of the coherent millisecond X-ray pulsation in Aql X-1.
