How do I write a logarithm (LOG) formula with a base different to base 10?

To change the base use log_x(y) where x is the base.

Example

To display the logarithm to base 3 of 10 use the following expression:

log_3(10)

  • Hi @DavidPostill, thanks for the answer but I think you do not understand the question. What I tried to do was to WRITE a LOG on LibreOffice Math, not CALCULATE a LOG on LibreOffice Calc. – João Paulin Aug 24 '16 at 21:47
