Solve the problem
Given log[10]^2 = 0.3010 and log[10]^3 = 0.4771.
Find log[10] ^24
-------------------
I think you mean:
Solve the problem
Given log%2810%2C2%29+=+0.3010 and log%2810%2C3%29+=+0.4771
Find log(24)
-------------
1st, base 10 is the default base, called "common log", so it's not necessary to specify it.
------------------
log(2) = 0.3010 and log(3) = 0.4771 is sufficient
24 = 2*2*2*3
log(24) = 3*log(2) + log(3)
log(24) =~ 1.3801
