Math Problem Statement

\log_{2}\left(\log_{2}\left(x\right)\right)=4

Solution

We are given the equation:

log2(log2(x))=4\log_{2}\left(\log_{2}(x)\right) = 4

Step 1: Solve the outer logarithmic equation

First, solve the equation log2(y)=4\log_{2}(y) = 4 where y=log2(x)y = \log_{2}(x). This is done by rewriting the logarithmic equation in its exponential form:

y=24=16y = 2^4 = 16

Thus, log2(x)=16\log_{2}(x) = 16.

Step 2: Solve the inner logarithmic equation

Now that we have log2(x)=16\log_{2}(x) = 16, rewrite this in exponential form:

x=216=65536x = 2^{16} = 65536

Final Answer:

The solution is:

x=65536x = 65536
