Characteristic and Mantissa Standard form of decimal p is characteristic of n log(n)=mantissa+characteristic log(m) is mantissa of n
How to find log(n) using log tables 1) Step1: Standard form of decimal n = m x 10p , 1 m < 10 Note to find log(n) we have to find the mantissa of n i.e. log(m) 2) Step2: Significant digits Identify 4 digits from left, starting from first non zero digit of m, inserting zeros at the end if required, let it be ‘abcd’
How to find log(n) using log tables Example n = m x 10p, p: characteristic, log(m): mantissa Log(n) = p + log(m)
How to find log(n) using log tables 3) Step3: Select row ‘ab’ Select row ‘ab’ from the logarithmic table 4) Step4: Select column ‘c’ Locate number at column ‘c’ from the row ‘ab’, let it be x 5) Step5: Select column of mean difference ‘d’ If d 0,Locate number at column ‘d’ of mean difference from the row ‘ab’, let it be y What if d = 0? Consider y = 0
