You can expand the given expression by using the basic rules of logarithms:
Log%286%2F5%29%5E6 First, apply the "power rule": Log%5Bb%5D%28M%29%5En+=+n%2ALog%5Bb%5D%28M%29 to get:
6%2ALog%286%2F5%29 Now apply the "quotient rule": n%2ALog%5Bb%5D%28M%2FN%29+=+n%2ALog%5Bb%5D%28M%29-n%2ALog%5Bb%5D%28N%29
highlight%286%2ALog%286%29-6%2ALog%285%29%29
