If you are evaluating the log base 5 of 6.4, then
due to the change of base rule
You can use logs of any valid base with the change of base rule.

This means you could say

where Ln refers to the natural log


Or if you are trying to compute log(5^6.4) then use a calculator to get roughly 4.473408
This assumes the log is base 10.
