the 10 is small subscript by the way.

Note:
Let log denote common logarithm
____________________________
log(x) = ln(x)
log(x) = log(x)/log(e) ← By logarithm conversion rule
log(x) - log(x)/log(e) = 0 ← Now, factor
log(x)[1 - (1/log(e))] = 0
possible solutions are for:
➊ log(x) = 0
x = 10⁰
x = 1 ✔ ← substituting this into the original equation shows that it works
➋ 1 - (1/log(e)) = 0 ← There is no x in this equation.
So, there can be no solution for x here.
From ➊ & ➋ we have:
ANSWER
x = 1
Have a good one!

log x = ln x = logx/loge ==> log e = 1 ! not true...this is an imposible equality
