3^{x} = 5

$3^{x} = 5$

Step 1

Reduce by cancelling the common factors.

3^{x} = 5

$3^{x} = 5$

Step 2

Convert the exponential equation to a logarithmic equation using the logarithm base

(3)

$(3)$ of the right side

(5)

$(5)$ equals the exponent

(x)

$(x)$ .

{log}_{3} (5) = x

$\log_{3} (5) = x$
