lg b = x
log10 b = x
How to find the common logarithm lg b = x?
lg b is logarithm of b to base 10.
x is the exponent to which you need to raise base 10 to get b.
lg b = x ⇔ 10x = b
Symbol: lg b = log 10 b = log b = log 10 (b) = log (b, 10)
Examples:
lg 1 = x ⇔ 10x = 1 ⇒ x = 0
lg 100 = x ⇔ 10x = 100 ⇒ x = 2
lg 10= x ⇔ 10x = 10 ⇒ x = 1
