True, one of the log rules is,
log%28%28a%2Fb%29%29=log%28%28a%29%29-log%28%28b%29%29
Substitute a=49 and b=7

highlight_green%28FALSE%29

log+%2849%29%2Flog+%287%29+=+log+%287%2C+49%29%2Flog+%287%2C+7%29+=+2%2F1+=+2

log+%2849%29+-+log+%287%29+=+log+%2849%2F7%29+=+log+%287%29

As seen, these are clearly two different values.
