Evaluate the following using logarithm table 5.25×23.73

Answer 1

Log tables????
This is 2021.

Don't have any handy, so I will fake it using my calculator

let x = 5.25×23.73
log x = log (5.25×23.73)
= log 5.25 + log 23.73
= .7202 + 1.3753 <---- rounded it down to 4 decimals to match the poor accuracy level of the ancient tables
= 2.0955

logx = 2.0955
x = 10^2.0955 = 10^2 * 10^.0955
= 100*1.2459 , using my pretend anti-log tables
= 124.59

actual answer: 5.25×23.73 = 124.5825
