First we need to find out what kind of logarithm rule is given, the given is logarithm product rule which states that a log of a product is equal to the sum of the log of the first base and the log of the second base.
By:
= log (1.37 x 10⁹) = log (1.37) + log (10⁹)
= log (1.37) + 9
= 9 + log (1.37)
In the meantime, 1.37 is between 1 and 10 its logarithm will be between 0 and 1. Thus, the value of log (1.37 x 10⁹) falls between 9 and 10 because when you compose a scientific notation you will always have a number among 1 and 10 by 10 to some power. That power tells you the integer part of the logarithm.
