What is a Logarithm? A Logarithm goes the other way. It asks the question "what exponent produced this?": And answers it like this: In that example: The Exponent takes 2 and 3 and gives 8 (2, used 3 times in a multiplication, makes 8) The Logarithm takes 2 and 8 and gives 3 (2 makes 8 when used 3 times in a multiplication)
In mathematics, the logarithm to base b is the inverse function of exponentiation with base b. That means that the logarithm of a number x to the base b is the exponent to which b must be raised to produce x. For example, since 1000 = 103, the logarithm base of 1000 is 3, or log10 (1000) = 3.
The exponent says how many times to use the number in a multiplication. In this example: 2 3 = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8 (2 is used 3 times in a multiplication to get 8)
In simple words, Logarithms are the inverse process of exponentiation. What are Logarithms? A logarithm is defined as the power to which a number must be raised to get some other values.
4 Αυγ 2024 · Logarithm is a mathematical function that represents the exponent to which a fixed number, known as the base, must be raised to produce a given number. In other words, it is the inverse operation of exponentiation.
Here is the mathematical definition of logs. A logarithm is defined using an exponent. Here, "log" stands for logarithm. The right side part of the arrow is read to be "Logarithm of a to the base b is equal to x". A very simple way to remember this is "base stays as the base in both forms" and "base doesn't stay with the exponent in log form".
The base b logarithm of a number is the exponent that we need to raise the base in order to get the number. The logarithm of the multiplication of x and y is the sum of logarithm of x and logarithm of y. The logarithm of the division of x and y is the difference of logarithm of x and logarithm of y.
