\frac{4096}{729}\times \left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^{-8}=\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{n}
Calculate \frac{3}{4} to the power of -6 and get \frac{4096}{729}.
\frac{4096}{729}\times \frac{6561}{65536}=\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{n}
Calculate \frac{4}{3} to the power of -8 and get \frac{6561}{65536}.
\frac{9}{16}=\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{n}
Multiply \frac{4096}{729} and \frac{6561}{65536} to get \frac{9}{16}.
\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{n}=\frac{9}{16}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\log(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{n})=\log(\frac{9}{16})
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
n\log(\frac{3}{4})=\log(\frac{9}{16})
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
n=\frac{\log(\frac{9}{16})}{\log(\frac{3}{4})}
Divide both sides by \log(\frac{3}{4}).
n=\log_{\frac{3}{4}}\left(\frac{9}{16}\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
