Hi, I have a logarithm problem that I manage to solve but not sure if it's right. It will be much appreciated if someone confirms this for me.
Please and thank you!

logx=12log2
logx=log2^12
x=2^12
Indeed. One can also note that the problem becomes much easier (you get rid of the logarithms sooner) if you convert all your logs to base 2 at the start instead of base 10 (log base 2 of x is commonly abbreviated lg x).
