Evaluate; \(\frac{\log_3 9 - \log_2 8}{\log_3 9}\)

  • A. -\(\frac{1}{3}\)
  • B. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  • C. \(\frac{1}{3}\)
  • D. -\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Correct Answer: D. -\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Explanation

\(\frac{\log_3 9 - \log_2 8}{\log_3 9}\)

= \(\frac{\log_3 3^2 - \log_2 2^3}{\log_3 3^2}\)

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

= \(\frac{-1}{2}\)
