Solve log5[3}

1 answer

To solve log5(3), you need to find the exponent to which 5 must be raised to get 3.

log5(3) is the same as asking: 5^x = 3

To find the value of x, you can rewrite the equation in exponential form:

5^x = 3

Since 5^1 is equal to 5, and 5^2 is equal to 25, x must be between 1 and 2.

By approximation, you can determine that x is approximately 0.682.

Therefore, log5(3) is approximately 0.682.
