We have 4 3/4 pounds of apples in each bag. if we have 4bags, how many pounds of apples do we have in all?

To figure this out, simply multiply 4 3/4 times 4:

First, I changed 4 3/4 to mixed numbers, 19/4.

19/4*4=76/4=19

You have a total of 19 pounds of apples.

I hope this helps :)

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
