...log. of 4 in the above series is =2, which multiply by 3 = 6, which is the logarithm 64 or the cube of 4. " And if the logarithm of any number be divided...quotient will be equal to the logarithm of that root ; the index or logarithm of 64 (in the first series) is 6, if divided by 2 = 3, which is the logarithm... | |

...multiplied by 2, the product will be 8, which is the logarithm of 256, or the square of 16. Again : if the logarithm of any number be divided by the index...logarithm of that root : thus, the index or logarithm of 256 is 8 ; now, 8 divided by 2 gives 4, which is the logarithm of 16, or the square root of 256, according... | |

For the same reason, if the logarithm of any number be multiplied by the index of its power, the product will be equal to the logarithm of that power.
