Given:


\log_210=\log_22+___

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

Let the missing value be x. Then


\log_210=\log_22+x


\log_210-\log_22=x

Using property of logarithm, we get


\log_2\left((10)/(2)\right)=x
[\because \log (a)/(b)=\log a - \log b]


\log_2\left(5\right)=x

Therefore, the missing value is
\log_2\left(5\right).
