Question

If antilog 0.2991 = 1.991
then log 199.1 = ?
¡) 0.2991
¡¡) 1.2991
¡¡¡) 2.2991
¡v) 3.2991​

Answer 1

Answer:

log 199.1=2.2991

i.e. (iii) option is correct

Step:

antilog(0.2991)=1.991

∴log(1.991)=0.2991

log199.1=log(1.991×100)

             =log(1.991)+log(10²)…(loga+logb=log(ab))

             =log(1.991)+2log(10)…(nlogab=logabn)

As we know, loga(a)=1

log1.991=0.2991+2=2.2991

Answer 2

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

Given that

$\rm \: antilog(0.2991) = 1.991$

$\rm\implies \:log(1.991) = 0.2991$

Now, Consider

$\rm \: log(199.1)$

can be rewritten as

$\rm \: = \: log(1.991 \times 100)$

We know,

$\boxed{ \rm{ \:log(xy) = logx + logy \: }}$

So, using this result, we get

$\rm \: = \: log(1.991) + log(100)$

$\rm \: = \: 0.2991 + log( {10}^{2} )$

$\rm \: = \: 0.2991 + 2log(10)$

$\rm \: = \: 0.2991 + 2 \times 1$

$\rm \: = \: 0.2991 + 2$

$\rm \: = \: 2.2991$

Hence,

$\red{\rm\implies \:\rm \:log(199.1) = \: 2.2991}$

So, option (iii) is correct.
