Common Logs
• Base 10 is known as the common log, if no base is written in a log, it is assumed to be base 10
example: x = log 5 is the same as x = log105
• This is one of two bases we can use our calculators
• Example: x = log 260
= 2.415

Properties of Common Logs
log10=1 since 101 = 10
log10x=x since 10x = 10x
log1=0 since 100 = 1
10logx = x since logx = logx

Solving simple equations with Common Logs
Solve:
10x = 3.7
x=log3.7
x= 0.568
Solve:
logx = –1.6
x =10-1.6
x= 0.025

Natural logs• Used for the natural base, e, and can also be
calculated with calculators.
• Inverse of ex
• Abbreviated ln
• Example: x = ln14.32
= 2.662

Properties of Natural Logs
lne=1 since e1 = e
lnex=x since ex = ex
ln1=0 since e0 = 1
elnx = x since lnx = lnx

Solving simple equations with Natural Logs
Solve:
lnx = 3.45
x=e3.45
x=31.500
Solve:
ex = 6.18
x = ln6.18
x= 1.821
