Simplify/Condense 3 natural log of x-5 natural log of y

$3 \ln (x) - 5 \ln (y)$

Step 1

Simplify each term.

Simplify $3 \ln (x)$ by moving $3$ inside the logarithm.

$\ln (x^{3}) - 5 \ln (y)$

Simplify $- 5 \ln (y)$ by moving $5$ inside the logarithm.

$\ln (x^{3}) - \ln (y^{5})$

Step 2

Use the quotient property of logarithms, $\log_{b} (x) - \log_{b} (y) = \log_{b} (\frac{x}{y})$ .

$\ln (\frac{x^{3}}{y^{5}})$
