3log27 -2log32243 -5log62581 +3log925 +2log829 +3log8425 -5log49, is less than

The given expression is less than 0.
Solution
We wish to show that
S=3log27−2log32243−5log62581+3log925+2log829+3log8425−5log49is less than 0.
For a JEE‐/NEET–level approach we “estimate” each term (taking “log” to mean logarithm to base 10):
-
Term 1:
3log27=33log3.
Since 27=33 we have
log27=3log3.)
Thus,Using log10(3)≈0.4771,
3×1.196≈3.588.
3×0.4771≈1.4313≈1.196, so the term is about -
Term 2:
For 32243, we have
log32243≈4.5087 (since 32243≈3.2243×104).
Thus,
4.5087≈2.124, and
−2log32243≈−2×2.124≈−4.248. -
Term 3:
Similarly,
log62581≈4.796, so
4.796≈2.191, giving
−5log62581≈−5×2.191≈−10.955. -
Term 4:
log925≈2.9666 (since 925≈9.25×102) so
2.9666≈1.722, and
3log925≈3×1.722≈5.166. -
Term 5:
Here, first compute log829≈2.918, then
2log829≈5.836, so
5.836≈2.415. -
Term 6:
For 8425, we get log8425≈3.925 (since 8425≈8.425×103);
thus, 3.925≈1.981, and
3log8425≈3×1.981≈5.943. -
Term 7:
Since 49=72, we have
log49=2log7.
Using log7≈0.8451, we get
log49≈1.6902, so
−5log49≈−5×1.6902≈−8.451.
Now, let’s add them:
- Term 1: +3.588
- Term 2: –4.248
3.588 – 4.248 = –0.660 - Term 3: –10.955 → Total ≈ –11.615
- Term 4: +5.166 → Total ≈ –6.449
- Term 5: +2.415 → Total ≈ –4.034
- Term 6: +5.943 → Total ≈ +1.909
- Term 7: –8.451 → Final total ≈ –6.542
Thus, we obtain
S≈−6.54,which is clearly less than 0.
Here’s a concise mermaid diagram of the solution flow:
Minimal Explanation:
Convert numbers to logarithmic expressions (e.g. log27 = 3log3), estimate each term using approximations for log3,log7, etc., compute all square roots and coefficients, sum the terms getting approximately –6.54, and conclude the expression is less than 0.
