Write characteristic of log500 =2.6990 and also write mantissa.
Answers
The integral part of a common logarithm is called the characteristic and the non-negative decimal part is called the mantissa. Suppose, log 39.2 = 1.5933, then 1 is the characteristic and 5933 is the mantissa of the logarithm. If log . ... 9742, then - 3 is the characteristic and . 9742 is the mantissa of the logarithm.
SOLUTION
TO DETERMINE
The characteristic of log500 = 2.6990 and also write mantissa.
CONCEPT TO BE IMPLEMENTED
The characteristic is defined as the integral part and mantissa is the decimal part.
EVALUATION
Here the given logarithm is
log500 = 2.6990
We know that in logarithm of a number, there are two parts
- First part = Characteristic
- Second Part = Mantissa
The characteristic is defined as the integral part and mantissa is the decimal part.
Now log500 = 2.6990
Therefore we can conclude that -
2 is characteristic of log 500
0.6990 is mantissa of log 500
