Learn how to take log of both sides to solve an exponential equation

The video tutorial explains how to solve equations involving exponents by isolating the exponent and using logarithms. It discusses the challenge of using calculators that only support log base 10 and introduces the change of base formula to overcome this. The tutorial demonstrates how to apply this formula to calculate logarithms with different bases and solve for variables in equations.
