Is this what you mean? log+%28b%2C+%28v%5E7%2Fu%5E8%29%29+

If so, then use the laws of logarithms log+%28M%2FN%29+=+log+M+-+log+N+ to write this as separate but simpler logs:
log+%28b%2C+%28v%5E7%29%29+-+log+%28b%2C+%28u%5E8%29%29+

This can further be broken down using the third law of logs: log+M%5EN+=+N+%2A+log+M:

7+%2A+log+%28b%2C+v%29+-+8+%2A+log+%28b%2C+u%29+
