Question

Use a scientific calculator to evaluate log 32.5 (round to the nearest hundredth).

Answer 1

The log 32.5 amount is 1.51. The logarithm operation is an inverse operation of an exponential operation which is done to find the reversed amount of the exponential operation result. The based amount used in a basic logarithm operation is 10, therefore this problem also can be written as 10 log 32.5 which is to find the exponential amount of 10 that results in 32.5.
