Simplify: \(\frac{\log \sqrt{27}}{\log \sqrt{81}}\)

  • A. 1/6
  • B. 3/8
  • C. 1/2
  • D. 3/4

Correct Answer: B. 3/8

Explanation

\(\frac{\log \sqrt{27}}{\log 81}\)

= \(\frac{\log \sqrt{3^3}}{\log 3^4}\)

= \(\frac{\log 3^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\log 3^4}\)

= \(\frac{\frac{3}{2} \log 3}{4 \log 3}\)

= \(\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{4}\)

= \(\frac{3}{8}\)
