Question

Evaluate the logarithm. log2 16

Answer 1

Answer:

$log_2 (16) = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is:

$log_2 (16)$

Now,as we know:

$log_b(b^k) = k$

Now,  $log_2 (16) = log_2 (2^{(4)})$

Applying this to the given expression, we get:

$log_2 (2^{(4)}) = 4$  where:  b = 2, and k  = 4

Hence, $log_2 (16) = 4$
