True or false: Inx/Iny = In(x-y) ? Justify

1. When you operate with logarithms, use the symbol ln, not In.

2. Do not write Inx. Nobody will understand you. Write ln(x).

3. True or false: ln(x)/ln(y) = ln(x-y) ? ----- FALSE.

4. Justification? There is no any justification. Simply FALSE. Believe me.
