    I had to self learn all of this about 2 years ago, and understood it all and everything, but never had a good way to remember how to rearrange logs ahha. When I found this I was looking for something completely different, but saw how good a teacher he is, so decided to watch it anyway since I was taking a food break aha. really really good teacher, i'm at uni at the moment doing electrical engineering, struggling with the maths because i never had a good maths teacher that explained things so you could understand through school, college or sixth form. It's really important to understand this stuff early, so you're doing a good service sir, keep it up (Y).

    Any similar questions as 5^n-3 = 1/25 can be easily derived using ln. With the use of ln, n-3 = ln(1/25)/ln5 n-3=-2 n=1 So my question here is, is there a reason that stops you from arriving at the answer using an easier method, or is it simply not in the syllabus?
