³log 5 × ²⁵log 27 = ______

Solution

The expression shown in the image is:

3log5×25log27{}^{3} \log 5 \times {}^{25} \log 27

This is written using logarithms with different bases, and we will break it down.

  1. Rewrite the logarithms with their respective bases:
    • 3log5{}^{3} \log 5 means the logarithm of 5 with base 3, i.e., log35\log_3 5.
    • 25log27{}^{25} \log 27 means the logarithm of 27 with base 25, i.e., log2527\log_{25} 27.

Thus, the expression becomes:

log35×log2527\log_3 5 \times \log_{25} 27

  1. Change of base formula: We can simplify these logarithms using the change of base formula, which states:

    logba=logalogb\log_b a = \frac{\log a}{\log b}

    Applying this:

    \quad \text{and} \quad \log_{25} 27 = \frac{\log 27}{\log 25}$$

So the expression now becomes:

log5log3×log27log25\frac{\log 5}{\log 3} \times \frac{\log 27}{\log 25}

  1. Simplification:
    • log27\log 27 can be written as log(33)=3log3\log (3^3) = 3 \log 3 by using logarithmic properties.
    • log25\log 25 can be written as log(52)=2log5\log (5^2) = 2 \log 5.

Thus, we now have:

log5log3×3log32log5\frac{\log 5}{\log 3} \times \frac{3 \log 3}{2 \log 5}

  1. Cancel terms:
    • log5\log 5 cancels with log5\log 5.
    • log3\log 3 cancels with log3\log 3.

Now the expression simplifies to:

32\frac{3}{2}

So, the final answer is:

32\boxed{\frac{3}{2}}
