Explanatory Answer

Let 14a = 36b = 84c = x

14a = x
log14x = a
logx14 = \\frac{1}{a})

36b = x
log36x = b

84c = x
log84x = c
logx84 = \\frac{1}{c})

\\frac{1}{c}) - \\frac{1}{a}) = logx84 - logx14 = logx(\\frac{84}{14}) = logx6
6 ร— b ร— (\\frac{1}{c}) - \\frac{1}{a}))
6 ร— log36x ร— logx6
6 ร— \\frac{log x}{log 36}) ร— \\frac{log 6}{log x})
6 ร— \\frac{log 6}{log 36})
6 ร— log366
6 ร— \\frac{1}{2})
3.


The question is "If a,b,c are non-zero and 14a = 36b = 84c, then 6b(\\frac{1}{c}) - \\frac{1}{a})) is equal to"
