You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If log10s=4, then s=
LOGS ARE INVERSE PROCESS FOR EXPONENTS.
IF B^P=N...THEN WE SAY LOG(N) TO BASE B IS P.THIS IS THE DEFINITION AND WE WRITE BACK IN THIS MANNER TO UNDERSTAND AND PERFORM REQUIRED OPERATIONS.
HERE WE GOT 10 AS THE BASE AND S AS THE NUMBER
10^4=S
