+log%28p%29+-+log%28q%29+=+2%2Alog%28r%29+
+log%28+p%2Fq+%29+=+log%28+r%5E2+%29+
+p%2Fq+=+r%5E2+
+p+=+q%2Ar%5E2+
--------------------
check:
suppose +q+=+1000+ and
+r+=+100+
then +p+=+q%2Ar%5E2+
+p+=+10%5E3%2A10%5E4+
+p+=+10%5E7+
----------------------
+log%28+p+%29+-+log%28+1000+%29+=+2%2Alog%28+100+%29+
+log%28p+%29+-+3+=+2%2A2+
+log%28p%29+=+7+
+p+=+10%5E7+
OK
