Point 4 of 6

24.3.4 The Log of a Product and a Quotient

Core idea

Exponents of a product already add together, so the log of a product equals the logs added, log(MN)=logM+logN.

Module goal. Introduce logarithms as the inverse of exponentiation, master the idea and its operation rules, the central hub of this stage
