Find the value of each number in a logarithm table:

log 0.3452 = -0.4619

log98.56 = 1.9937

log0.06541 = -1.1844

log451 = 2.6542

Add the top two together, then the bottom two:

Top two: -0.4619 + 1.9937 = 1.5318

Bottom two: -1.1844 + 2.6542 = 1.4698

Now subtract the sum of the bottom from the sum of the top:

1.5318 - 1.4698 = 0.062

Now find the antilog:

10^(0.062)

Answer = 1.1535
