log6(625)=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_6(625)=\frac{\ln(625)}{\ln(6)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how could i solve it with out calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since \(625=5^4\) you have \[\log_6(625)=\log_6(5^4)=4\log_6(5)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but without a calculator you cannot solve \[\log_6(5)\] are you sure the base is 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its 5 sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if the question is \[\log_5(625)\] then \[\log_5(625)=\log_5(5^4)=4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_5(625)\] is the number you raise 5 to on order to get 625 since \(5^4=625\) that number is 4

ya and power will multiply
