I am currently learning about converting to log. However, My teacher did not explain converting to log with multiple variables.
Ex: 12^3 = (x^4)*(y^3)*(z^6)
Can anyone explain how to make that a logarithmic equation?

[tex]12^3~~ = ~~x^4 y^3 z^6\implies \log_{12}(x^4 y^3 z^6)=3 \\\\\\ \log_{12}(x^4)~~ + ~~\log_{12}(y^3)~~ + ~~\log_{12}(z^6)~~ = ~~3 \\\\\\ 4\log_{12}(x)~~ + ~~3\log_{12}(y)~~ + ~~6\log_{12}(z)~~ = ~~3[/tex]
