Answer:

lg21/(3lg2)

Step-by-step explanation:

log8(21)

Common log: log10 or lg

logb(a)

Change of base law:

logc(a)/logc(b)

log8(21)

lg21/lg8

8 = 2³

log8 = lg2³ = 3lg2

lg21/(3lg2)

By "common logarithm" you probably mean the natural logarithm. And you'll need the formula to change base:

[tex]\log_a(b)=\dfrac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)}[/tex]

So, you have

[tex]\log_8(21)=\dfrac{\ln(21)}{\ln(8)}[/tex]
