You can put this solution on YOUR website! Compute log base 6 (96) to the nearest thousandth
**
Because calculators are only configured to do base 10 or base e logs, you must use the change of base formula: log(new base) of number/log(new base) of old base)
For given problem:
log base 6 (96)=log(96)/log(6)=2.547
note: log without the base designation is log base 10.
