You can put this solution on YOUR website!
when you say log5 i take it you mean log to the base 5? If so, we have...
(i will ignore writing the 5 - take it as read):
log 12 is the same as log(6*2) which is the same as log6+log2
as you know log6 and log2 from your question, just add them together :-)
