Hi guys!

 

I'm doing some log exercises and I have the solutions with me.

 

When I do log 5 it gives me 0,69897 on both calc I use, but on the solution it says 0,67897.

 

Funny thing is that it's log 5 / log 3= 0,67897 / 0,47712 in the solution. And ye log 3 gives me the same thing, it's as if it was a typo...

Hi Tony :)

 

I'm doing some log exercises and I have the solutions with me.

When I do log 5 it gives me 0,69897 on both calc I use, but on the solution it says 0,67897.

 

log(5) = 0.6989700043360189      base 10

log(5,e)) = 1.6094379124341003     base e

 

Only one digit is different, it is a typo on your solution sheet.  :)

 

 

Funny thing is that it's log 5 / log 3= 0,67897 / 0,47712 in the solution. And ye log 3 gives me the same thing, it's as if it was a typo...

(log(5)/log(3)) = 1.4649735207179274
