Let a=(log⁡74)(log⁡75−log⁡72)log⁡725(log⁡78−log⁡74)a = \dfrac{(\log_7 4)(\log_7 5 - \log_7 2)}{\log_{7} 25 (\log_7 8 - \log_7 4)}. Then the value of 5a5^a is

You might be wondering how log⁡752log⁡75=log⁡552\dfrac{\log_7 \frac52}{\log_7 5} = {\log_5 \frac52}.

Property used =log⁡am=log⁡bmlog⁡ba=\boxed{ {\log_a m} = \dfrac{\log_b m}{\log_b a}}

In logarithm, you need to not just know how LHS -> RHS (in terms of the properties), but also how RHS -> LHS.
