log_(81)3=

log813= \log _{81} 3=

Full solution

Q. log813= \log _{81} 3=
  1. Identify Base: In log813\log_{81}3, 8181 is the base.\newlineRewrite 33 as a power of 8181.\newlineSince 81=3481 = 3^4, we want to express 33 as a power of 8181. However, 33 is not an integer power of 8181. Instead, we can express 8181 as a power of 33 and use the property of logarithms that allows us to invert the base and the argument (the number inside the logarithm) with a reciprocal exponent.\newline81=3481 = 3^4, so 818122.
  2. Rewrite as Power: We found: 3=811/43 = 81^{1/4}\newlinelog813log_{81}3 becomes log81811/4log_{81}81^{1/4}.\newlineEvaluate log81811/4log_{81}81^{1/4}.\newlineWhen logarithm base matches the argument's base, the logarithm is equal to the exponent.\newlinelog81811/4=14log_{81}81^{1/4} = \frac{1}{4}
