You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Completely by hand, use a table of common logarithms, or natural logarithms if you prefer.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"log%28%280.003634%29%29=log%28%283.634%2A10%5E-3%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"log%28%2810%5E-3%29%29%2Blog%28%283.634%29%29=-3%2Blog%28%283.634%29%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Looking in the table of common logs for log((3.634)), find accuracy up to the hudredths place:
\n" ); document.write( "\"log%28%283.63%29%29=0.5599066\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"log%28%283.64%29%29=0.5611014\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Use linear interpolation (which is much like using linear equation to find an intermediate value) to find a good estimation for 3.634.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Your result should be very very near or the same as \"highlight%28-3%2B0.560%29\".\r
