Logarithms. In Mathematics, logarithms are the other way of writing the exponents. A logarithm of a number with a base is equal to another number. A logarithm is just the opposite function of exponentiation. For example, if 102 = 100 then log10 100 = 2. Hence, we can conclude that, Logb x = n or bn = x.

t. e. v. t. e. In mathematics, the logarithm is the inverse function to exponentiation. That means that the logarithm of a number x to the base b is the exponent to which b must be raised to produce x. For example, since 1000 = 103, the logarithm base of 1000 is 3, or log10 (1000) = 3.
Definition of a logarithm. Generalizing the examples above leads us to the formal definition of a logarithm. log b. ( a) = c b c = a. Both equations describe the same relationship between a , b , and c : b. is the base. , c. is the exponent. , and. a. is called the argument. . A helpful note.
A logarithm is the inverse of the exponential function. Specifically, a logarithm is the power to which a number (the base) must be raised to produce a given number. For example, \log_2 64 = 6, log2 64 = 6, because 2^6 = 64. 26 = 64. In general, we have the following definition: z z is the base- x x logarithm of y y if and only if x^z = y xz = y.
A log is a piece of a thick branch or of the trunk of a tree that has been cut so that it can be used for fuel or for making things.
