Question 1

How do I convert between logarithm bases?

Accepted Answer

Use change of base: log_b(x) = ln(x)/ln(b) = log(x)/log(b). log₂(8) = log(8)/log(2) = 0.903/0.301 = 3.

Question 2

What are logarithm properties?

Accepted Answer

log(ab) = log(a)+log(b). log(a/b) = log(a)-log(b). log(aⁿ) = n×log(a). These simplify calculations.

Question 3

How accurate are these calculations?

Accepted Answer

Our calculator uses double-precision floating-point arithmetic, accurate to about 15-16 significant digits for most calculations.

Question 4

Can I use the result in further calculations?

Accepted Answer
