Final answer:

Yes, logarithms allow you to log both the numerator and denominator independently.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to the question is A. "Yes, logarithms allow you to log both the numerator and denominator independently."

When taking the log of a fraction, you can log the numerator and denominator separately. The property of logarithms states that the logarithm of the number resulting from the division of two numbers is the difference between the logarithms of the two numbers. For example, if you have the fraction 5/2, you can log the numerator (5) and the denominator (2) separately as log(5) - log(2).

Therefore, you have the option to log both the numerator and denominator independently when working with logarithms.
