...Hence the logarithm of a fraction, or of the quotient arising from dividing one number by another, is equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus the logarithm of the denominator. And if each member of the equation a* = y be raised to the fractional power -, we shall have a" = y"...

...Hence the logarithm of a fraction, or of the quotient arising from dividing one number by another, is equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus, the logarithm of the denominator. And if each member of the common equation ax=y be raised to the fractional power denoted by — , we...

...logarithm oi the quotient is equal to the logarithm of the dividend minus that of the divisor ; or the logarithm of a fraction is equal to the logarithm of the numerator made less by that of the denominator. 10. Also, x. A -" = — 7i x. Л : for A~" '• f - n =A ni therefore...

...Hence the logarithm of a fraction, or of the quotient arising from dividing one number by another, is equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus the logarithm of the denominator. 508. And if each member of the equation, ax=y. m be raised to the fractional power «, we shall have...

...Hence the logarithm of a fraction, or of the quotient arising from dividing one number by another, is equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus the logarithm of the denominator. And if each member of the common equation ar=^y be raised to the fractional power denoted by — ,...

...= 75 F;» = 91 Substituting these conditions in the above general formula, and bearing in mind that the logarithm of a fraction is equal to the logarithm...numerator, minus the logarithm of the denominator, we shall have the three following equations of conditions : - 0 4259687 = 25 o + 635 b + 15625 c -...

...therefore by adding the logarithm of 5 to that of 7. Since moreover the logarithm of a fraction will be equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus the logarithm of the denominator, it will be sufficient to place in the tables the logarithms of entire numbers. 216. If in the equation...

...56 ; hence it would have been more exact lo have added the former number. The logarithm of a vulgar fraction is equal to the logarithm of the numerator, minus the logarithm of the denoroinator. The logarithm of a decimal fraction is found, by considering it as a whole number, and...

...56 ; hence it would have been more exact -o have added the former number. The logarithm of a vulgar fraction is equal to the logarithm of the numerator, minus the logarithm of the denominator. The logarithm of a decimal fraction is found, by considering it as a whole number, and then prefixing...

...equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the numerator by the denominator, its logarithm will be equal to the logarithm of the numerator minus the logarithm of the denominator. Therefore, log yTy=log 3678— log 100 = 3.565612—2 = 1.565612 from which we see, that a mixed number...
