Answer:

n=512

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the logarithmic equation below:


\log _8n=3

To solve for n, the easiest way would be to change from logarithm form to the exponential form as follows:

• The base of the logarithm form becomes the base of the new exponential form.

,

• The number on the right becomes the index.


n=8^3

Thus:


\begin{gathered} n=8*8*8 \\ n=512 \end{gathered}

The value of n is 512.
