Math Problem Statement

2log2+3log3

Solution

The expression 2log2+3log32\log{2} + 3\log{3} can be simplified using the properties of logarithms.

Step 1: Apply the power rule of logarithms

The power rule states that alogb=logbaa\log{b} = \log{b^a}. So, we can rewrite the expression as:

2log2=log22=log42\log{2} = \log{2^2} = \log{4} 3log3=log33=log273\log{3} = \log{3^3} = \log{27}

Step 2: Combine the logarithms

Now, add the two logarithms together:

log4+log27\log{4} + \log{27}

Using the addition rule of logarithms, which states that loga+logb=log(a×b)\log{a} + \log{b} = \log{(a \times b)}:

log4+log27=log(4×27)=log108\log{4} + \log{27} = \log{(4 \times 27)} = \log{108}

Final Answer

The simplified expression is:

2log2+3log3=log1082\log{2} + 3\log{3} = \log{108}
