log7 (x)=2
x=49
7^2=49.
Can remember this by using log10
log10(100)=2, because 10^2 is l00. The exponent is on the right side of the equation.

log%287%2Cx%29=2+......change to base 10
log+%28%28x%29%29+%2Flog+%28%287%29%29=2
+log+%28%28x%29%29+=2+log+%287%29
log+%28%28x%29%29+=+log+%28%287%5E2%29%29....if log same, we have
x=49
