Logarithms are basically a restatement of known facts about exponents shown using special symbolism. Consider this rule : - where “b” is a base, raised to some exponent “u” - What exponent “u” should I raise “b” to and get “v” ?

  15. Logarithms Logarithm’s to the base 10 are called “common logarithms”.

  16. Your calculator has a “LOG” button that solves ALL base 10 logarithms. Just plug in “b” and it will give “u”

  17. A commonly used logarithm in real world applications such as compound interest is the Natural Logarithm.
