What is the formula for the base change of logarithm, how is it derived and its inference?
Variable base formula is an important formula, which is used in many logarithmic calculations.

Logs (a) and (b) represent logarithms based on b.

The so-called bottoming formula is log(a)(b)=log(n)(b)/log(n)(a).

Deduction:

Logarithm Logarithm (a) and (b) Let a = n x and b = n y.

Then log (a) (b) = log (n x) (n y)

According to the basic formula 4 of logarithm: log (a) (m n) = nlog (a) (m) and the basic formula 5: log (a n) (m) =1/nlog (a) (m).

Get log (n x) (n y) = y/X。

From a = n x and b = n y, y = log (n) (b) and x = log (n) (a).

Then there is: log (a) (b) = log (n x) (n y) = log (n) (b)/log (n) (a).

Proof: log(a)(b)=log(n)(b)/log(n)(a).
