Question: If \(\log_{10}2 = 0.30103,\log_{10}3 = 0.47712,\) the number of digits in\(3^{12} \times 2^{8}\)is...

If log102=0.30103,log103=0.47712,\log_{10}2 = 0.30103,\log_{10}3 = 0.47712, the number of digits in312×283^{12} \times 2^{8}is

A

7

B

8

C

9

D

10

Answer

9

Explanation

Solution

y=312×28y = 3^{12} \times 2^{8} \Rightarrow log10y=12log103+8log102\log_{10}y = 12\log_{10}3 + 8\log_{10}2

=12×0.47712+8×0.30103= 12 \times 0.47712 + 8 \times 0.30103

=5.72544+2.40824=8.13368= 5.72544 + 2.40824 = 8.13368

\thereforeNumber of digits in yy = 8 + 1 = 9.
