SV# 3: Unit H Concept 7 (finding logs using approximations)



In this video the trickiest part is to realize that any log can be broken up in different ways. A log can be expanded in several different ways correctly. Also, it is easy to forget that regardless of the amount of clue already given to us we always have two "hidden" clues. In this case, ours were log base 8 of 8 which if we were refer back to concept eight, we know that if the base and the value are the same number, it simplifies to one. The second given clue is log 8 of 1 equalling zero because any log base of 1 equals zero. Always remember that the numbers MUST be broken down using only using the clues to then expand the log completely.
