log0.0015p=3+15n
log(0.00001×p6q7)=5+6n+7m

Explanation:

If you just have plain "log", it means log base 10 ie log10

log0.0015p

Remember: logab=loga+logb
=log0.001+log5p

=log103+logp15

Remember: logaa=1 and logabn=nlogab where n is a number
=3+15logp

=3+15n


log(0.00001×p6q7)

Remember: logab=logalogb
=log0.00001+logp6+logq7

=log105+logp6+logq7

=5+6logp+7logq

=5+6n+7m
