If $$\log x - 5\log 3 = - 2,$$     then x equals -

If $$\log x - 5\log 3 = - 2,$$     then x equals - Correct Answer 2.43

$$\eqalign{ & \log x - 5\log 3 = - 2 \cr & \Rightarrow \log x - \log {3^5} = - 2 \cr & \Rightarrow \log \left( {\frac{x}{{{3^5}}}} \right) = - 2 \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{x}{{243}} = {10^{ - 2}} = \frac{1}{{100}} \cr & \Rightarrow x = \frac{{243}}{{100}} = 2.43 \cr} $$
