xEXPLANATION OF THE TABLES.
COMMON LOGARITAMS, (Pacrs 2-18),)
(1) ATablo of Logarithms is a collection of auxiliary numbers, 80 con-
atiucted, that by it Multiplication of common numbers ean be performed by
addition of their Logarithms; Division by their subtraction; Involution, or
raising of powers, by their multiplication; and Evolution, or extraction of roots,
by their division. These auxiliaries or Logarithms are the exponents or
powers to which an invariable number called the base has to be raised, in order
te produce the number of which it is the Logarithm.
The above expressed in algebraic symbols, where A and B represent two
mumbers, is
(a) Log. (A x B) = log, A + log. B
(by Log. = log. A — log. B.
(©) Log. A" = nlog. AL
@ Log. /A = Log. At = 2hog. A.
(2) In the following Tables of common logarithms, the base = 10, and the
power to which 10 has to be raised to produce any number, is therefore tho
logarithm of that number; thus,
10’ = 10 2 1 = log. 10
10? = 166 “2 = log. 100
30" = 1000 “8 = log. 1000
10' = 10000. 4 = log. 10000
10? = 100000. & = log. 100000
If, beginning again with 10', we divide successively by 10, wa obtain the
follwing results:
10° = 10
10° 0
