Explanatory Answer

Method of solving this CAT Question from Exponents and Logarithms

3log(2a × 3b × 5c) = log(22 × 33 × 5) + log(26 × 3 × 57) + log(2 × 32 × 54)
We have to find only the value of a
23a × 33b × 53c = (22 × 26 × 21) × (33 × 3 × 32) × (5 × 57 × 54)
23a = 29
3a = 9
a = 3

The question is "If log(2a × 3b × 5c) is the arithmetic mean of log(22 × 33 × 5), log(26 × 3 × 57), and log(2 × 32 × 54), then a equals [TITA]"

Hence, the answer is 3
