log630=a⇔a=log6+log5log6⇔(a−1)log6=log5.…(1)
log1524=b⇔3log2+log3log3+log5=b⇔blog5=3log2−(b−1)log3.…(2)
Note that log6=log2+log3. We eliminate log3 from eqns. (1) and (2).
(b−1)log5b(a−1)log5=(a−1)(b−1)log2+(a−1)(b−1)log3=3(a−1)log2−(a−1)(b−1)log3.
Adding the two equations gives
(ab−1)log5=(ab+2a−b−2)log2.…(3)
From eqns. (1) and (3),
log12=log2+log6=(ab−1ab+2a−b−2+1a−1)log5=a2b+a−b−1(a−1)(ab+2a−b−2)log5=b(a+1)+1ab+2a−b−2log5.…(4)
Therefore,
log60=log12+log5=(b(a+1)+1ab+2a−b−2+1)log5=2ab+2a−1ab+2a−b−2log5.…(5)
From eqns. (4) and (5),
log6012=log12log60=ab+b+12ab+2a−1.
