What is log₂ 12?
Answer
log2 12 ≈
3.5850
log2 is the log base 2.
≈ — the logarithm is irrational; the value is rounded to 4 decimal places.
log2 12 is the power you raise 2 to, to get 12: 2y = 12.
2³ = 8 < 12 < 16 = 2⁴, so 3 < log2 12 < 4
log2 12 = ln 12 / ln 2 ≈ 2.484907 / 0.693147 ≈ 3.5850
Answer point ≈ (12, 3.5850).
The curve y = log2 x passes through (1, 0) and (2, 1) and rises: for x > 1 the log is positive, for 0 < x < 1 negative.
| Base | Notation | Value |
|---|---|---|
| e | ln 12 | ≈ 2.4849 |
| 10 | log 12 | ≈ 1.0792 |
| 2 | log₂ 12 | ≈ 3.5850 |
