The value of
\log_5{125} is 3.

Solution:

Step 1: Given expression is
log_5{125}.

125 can be expressed as
5^3.


\log_5{125}=\log_5{5}^3

Step 2: Using log rule:
\log_a{x^b}=b\log_a{x}


\log_5{5}^3=3\log_5{5}

Step 3: Using log rule:
\log_a{a}=1


\log_5{5}= 1


3\log_5{5}= 3(1)


3\log_5{5}= 3


\log_5{125}=3

Hence the value of
\log_5{125} is 3.
