Calculate Log Base 5 of 120

To solve the equation log ₅ (120) = x carry out the following steps.

1. Apply the change of base rule:
   log _a (x) = log _b (x) / log _b (a)
   With b = 10:
   log _a (x) = log(x) / log(a)
2. Substitute the variables:
   With x = 120, a = 5:
   log ₅ (120) = log(120) / log(5)
3. Evaluate the term:
   log(120) / log(5)
   = 1.39794000867204 / 1.92427928606188
   = 2.9746358687062
   = Logarithm of 120 with base 5

Here’s the logarithm of 5 to the base 120.
