H=k+log(a/c)
H-k = log(a/c)
e^{h-k}=a/c
a = ce^{h-k}

remember some properties
is no base is stated, assume base 10
and

log_a(b)=c means
a^c=b
and

a^(log_a(b))=b
and

log_a(b/c)=log_a(b)-log_a(c)
and

x^(a+b)=(x^a)(x^b)
so


H=K+log(a/c)

H=K+log_(10)(a/c)

H=K+log_(10)(a)-log_(10)(c)
minus K-log10(c) from both sides

H-K+log_(10)(c)=log_(10)(a)
convert

10^{H-K+log_(10)(c)}=a

(10^(H-K)(10^{log_(10)(c)}=a

(10^(H-K))(c)=a

a=c10^(H-K)
