Answer:

2.5% of the earth's fresh water is unavailable: locked up in glaciers, polar ice caps, atmosphere, and soil; highly polluted; or lies too far under the earth's surface to be extracted at an affordable cost

The logarithm of x, written log(x), tells you the power to which you would raise 10 to get x. So, if y=log(x), then x=10^y. It i

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the rules and concepts related to logarithmic operations.

From the definition of logarithm we know that,

$Log_{10}(10) = 1$

In this way for the given example we have that a logarithm with base 10 expressed in the problem can be represented as,

$log_{10}(1,000,000)$

We can express this also as,

$log_{10}(10^6)$

By properties of the logarithms we know that the logarithm of a power of a number is equal to the product between the exponent of the power and the logarithm of the number.

So this can be expressed as

$6*log_{10}(10)$
