MCQ
The number ${\log _{20}}3$  lies in
  • A
    $\left( {1/4,\,\,1/3} \right)$
  • $\left( {1/3,\,\,1/2} \right)$
  • C
    $\left( {1/2,\,3/4} \right)$
  • D
    $\left( {3/4,\,\,4/5} \right)$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\left( {1/3,\,\,1/2} \right)$
b
(b) ${20^{1/3}} < 3 < {20^{1/2}}$$ \Rightarrow $${1 \over 3} < {\log _{20}}3 < {1 \over 2}$

$\therefore {\log _{20}}3 \in \left( {{1 \over 3},\,{1 \over 2}} \right)$.
