The logarithm of a fraction is equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus the logarithm of the denominator.

If we encounter two logarithms with the same base, we can likely combine them. In this case, we can use the reverse of the above identity.

Use the properties of logarithms to solve the following equation:
Tap to reveal answer
Since the bases of the logs are the same and the logarithms are added, the arguments can be multiplied together. We then simplify the right side of the equation:


The logarithm can be converted to exponential form:



Factor the equation:


Although there are two solutions to the equation, logarithms cannot be negative. Therefore, the only real solution is
.
