To find the value of \( \log 88 \), we can use the properties of logarithms. Specifically, we can break down \( 88 \) into its prime factors:
\[ 88 = 8 \times 11 \]
Using the property of logarithms that states \( \log(a \times b) = \log a + \log b \), we can write:
\[ \log 88 = \log(8 \times 11) = \log 8 + \log 11 \]
Now, we can substitute the values we have:
\[ \log 8 \approx 0.9031 \] \[ \log 11 \approx 1.0414 \]
Now, we will add these two values together:
\[ \log 88 \approx 0.9031 + 1.0414 = 1.9445 \]
Thus, the value of \( \log 88 \) is approximately \( 1.9445 \).
So the correct response is:
\[ \log 88 \approx 1.9445 \]
