Question 221.

If log 2 = 0.3010 and log 3 = 0.4771, the value of log5 512 is:


  1.    2.870
  2.    2.967
  3.    3.876
  4.    3.912
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 3.876

log5 512 = log 512 log 5 = log 29 log (10/2) = 9 log 2 log 10 - log 2 = (9 x 0.3010) 1 - 0.3010 = 2.709 0.699 = 2709 699 = 3.876


Question 222.
If log 2 = 0.3010 and log 3 = 0.4771, What is the value of log51024?
  1.    4.31
  2.    3.88
  3.    3.91
  4.    2.97
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 4.31

Answer : Option A

Explanation :

$MF#%\log_5{1024} = \dfrac{\log 1024}{\log 5} = \dfrac{\log\left(2^{10}\right)}{\log\left(\dfrac{10}{2}\right)}= \dfrac{10 \log(2)}{\log 10 - \log 2} $MF#%

$MF#%= \dfrac{10 \times 0.3010 }{1 - 0.3010} = \dfrac{3.01}{0.699} = \dfrac{3010}{699} = 4.31$MF#%


Question 223.

If logx y = 100 and log2 x = 10, then the value of y is:


  1.    210
  2.    2100
  3.    21000
  4.    210000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 21000

log 2 x = 10      If Logx Y = 100 And Log2 X = 10, Then The Value Of Y Is:  ...     x = 210.

 If Logx Y = 100 And Log2 X = 10, Then The Value Of Y Is:  ... logx y = 100

 If Logx Y = 100 And Log2 X = 10, Then The Value Of Y Is:  ... y = x100

 If Logx Y = 100 And Log2 X = 10, Then The Value Of Y Is:  ... y = (210)100     [put value of x]

 If Logx Y = 100 And Log2 X = 10, Then The Value Of Y Is:  ... y = 21000.


Question 224.

log927log279


  1.    3/2
  2.    2/3
  3.    5/6
  4.    6/5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 5/6

Let log9 27 = n
9n =27
32n = 33
2n=3
n=3/2
Again, let log279 = m
27m = 9
33m =32
3m=2
m=2/3
log927 - log279=(n-m)=(3/2-2/3)=5/6



Question 225.

If log10 2 = 0.3010, then log2 10 is equal to:


  1.    699
  2.    1000
  3.    0.3010
  4.    0.6990
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 1000

log2 10 = 1 = 1 = 10000 = 1000 . log10 2 0.3010 3010 301


Question 226.
$MF#%\text{Find the value of}\dfrac{1}{3}\log_{10}125 - 2\log_{10}4 + \log_{10}32$MF#%
  1.    0
  2.    1
  3.    2
  4.    3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 1

Answer : Option B

Explanation :

$MF#%\begin{align}&\dfrac{1}{3}\log_{10}125 - 2\log_{10}4 + \log_{10}32\\\\=
&\log_{10}\left(125^{1/3}\right) - \log_{10}\left(4^2\right) + \log_{10}32\\\\
&= \log_{10}5 - \log_{10} 16 + \log_{10}32\\\\
&= \log_{10}\left(\dfrac{5 \times 32 }{16}\right)\\\\
&= \log_{10}(10)\\\\
&= 1\end{align}$MF#%

Question 228.


If log 2 = 0.30103, the number of digits in 264 is:

  1.    18
  2.    19
  3.    20
  4.    21
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 20


log (264)
= 64 x log 2
= (64 x 0.30103)
= 19.26592


Its characteristic is 19.


Hence, then number of digits in 264 is 20.
