find the value of log3 base 2 multiplied by log4 base 3 multiplied by log5 base 4 multiplied by log6 base 5 multiplied by log7 base 6 multiplied by log8 base 7. the answer is 3
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Rule: log(base a) b = [log b]/[log a]
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Your Problem:
\n" ); document.write( "[log3/log2]
\n" ); document.write( "You see that a bunch of the numerators cancel with a bunch of the denominators
\n" ); document.write( "leaving you with log8/log2.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "This is true for any base, so let the base be \"2\".
\n" ); document.write( "Then you get [log(base2) 8 / log(base 2) 2] = 3/1 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "============================
