Mantissa is always…………..
a) positive
b) negative
c) both a and b
d) none of these
Rule No 1:
if x > 1,
characteristic = (No. of digits on the left side of decimal point in x) – 1
Characteristic of log4350 is……….
a) 0
b) 5
c) 3
d) 4
Explanation:According to Rule no 1: x >1 then we count the digit on the left side of the decimal point in x like (4350.) mean 4 digits in the left of decimal. So 4 -1 =3
Characteristic of log435 is……….
a) 2
b) 5
c) 3
d) 4
Explanation:According to Rule no 1: x >1 then we count the digit on the left side of the decimal point in x like (435.) mean 3digits in the left of decimal. So 3 -1 =2
Characteristic of log43.5 is……….
a) 0
b) 1
c) 3
d) 4
Explanation:According to Rule no 1: x >1 then we count the digit on the left side of the decimal point in x like (43.5) mean 2digits in the left of decimal. So 2 -1= 1
Characteristic of log4.35 is……….
a) 0
b) 1
c) 3
d) 4
Explanation:According to Rule no 1: x >1 then we count the digit on the left side of the decimal point in x like (4.35) mean 1digits in the left of decimal. So 1 -1= 0
