Condene the logarithms on the left side by applying the property, ln(<em>a</em>) - ln(<em>b</em>) = ln(<em>a</em> / <em>b</em>):
ln(<em>x</em> - 2) - ln(<em>x</em> - 3) = 1
→ ln((<em>x</em> - 2) / (<em>x</em> - 3)) = 1
Now take the exponential of both sides:
exp(ln((<em>x</em> - 2) / (<em>x</em> - 3))) = exp(1)
(<em>x</em> - 2) / (<em>x</em> - 3) = <em>e</em>
Solve for <em>x</em> :
<em>x</em> - 2 = <em>e</em> (<em>x</em> - 3)
<em>x</em> - 2 = <em>e x</em> - 3<em>e</em>
<em>x</em> - <em>e x</em> = 2 - 3<em>e</em>
(1 - <em>e</em>) <em>x</em> = 2 - 3<em>e</em>
<em>x</em> = (2 - 3<em>e</em>) / (1 - <em>e</em>) ≈ 3.582
2235 is a number that Hal could be thinking of because of the number of digits and the 3 being in the right spot.
