Answer:

Explanation:

It depends on what level you are. Logs are most easily developed by using a series for the natural logarithms (instead of base 10, you use base e). Even that is a difficult process using a series that you won't be introduced to until your second calculus course..

For now, I'd be content to use a calculator. The series does not converge terribly quickly.
