A Brief Review of Logarithms

“The exponent to which base b must be raised to get x is y.”

Page 6: Personal Financial Literacy in the Mathematics Classroom

The Most Useful Property of Logarithms

But… WHY??!!!

The exponent to which base b must be raised to get xt is exactly the same as t times the exponent to which base b must be raised to get x.
