Given Log 2=0.387, log3=0.613, and log5=0.898, find log 16875/2 The \"\" is meant to be a subscript.
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "log(16875/2) = log(16875)-log(2)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Note: 16875/5 = 3375
\n" ); document.write( "3375/5 = 675
\n" ); document.write( "675/5 = 135
\n" ); document.write( "135/5 = 27
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "27 = 3^3
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "So,: log16875) = log(5^4*3^3) = 4log(5)+3log(3) = 4*0.898+3*0.613 = 5.431
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: log[16875/2] = 5.431-0.387 = 5.044
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
