Question
Evaluate : $\log_5125$
✓
Answer
Let $\log_5 125 = x$
$\Rightarrow 5^x = 125$
$\Rightarrow 5^x = 5 \times 5 \times 5$
$\Rightarrow 5^x = 5^3$
$\Rightarrow x = 3$
Thus, $\log_5125 = 3$
$\Rightarrow 5^x = 125$
$\Rightarrow 5^x = 5 \times 5 \times 5$
$\Rightarrow 5^x = 5^3$
$\Rightarrow x = 3$
Thus, $\log_5125 = 3$
