OpenStudy (ash2326):

@Kt4rest Can you take log of this no.? base=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not sure what you mean

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Do you know logarithms?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How would I use logarithms with this problem?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Suppose If I have 100 I take log of it, it'll come as 2 no. of digits will be (2+1) If log of 256 is taken it comes as 2.4 then no. of digits is the next integer to 2.4 which is 3 Do you get this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So there is a formula for this?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

No formula is needed, just next integer to the log of no.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, so I have 5log4 * 12log5. What would I do from here?
