Simplify each term.

Tap for more steps...

Step 1.1

Simplify $3 \log (x)$ by moving $3$ inside the logarithm.

$\log (x^{3}) - 13 \log (y)$

Step 1.2

Simplify $- 13 \log (y)$ by moving $13$ inside the logarithm.

$\log (x^{3}) - \log (y^{13})$

Step 2

Use the quotient property of logarithms, $\log_{b} (x) - \log_{b} (y) = \log_{b} (\frac{x}{y})$ .

$\log (\frac{x^{3}}{y^{13}})$
