\frac{1500}{200}=2^{\frac{x}{6.2}}
Divide both sides by 200.
\frac{15}{2}=2^{\frac{x}{6.2}}
Reduce the fraction \frac{1500}{200} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 100.
2^{\frac{x}{6.2}}=\frac{15}{2}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2^{\frac{5}{31}x}=\frac{15}{2}
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
\log(2^{\frac{5}{31}x})=\log(\frac{15}{2})
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
\frac{5}{31}x\log(2)=\log(\frac{15}{2})
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
\frac{5}{31}x=\frac{\log(\frac{15}{2})}{\log(2)}
Divide both sides by \log(2).
\frac{5}{31}x=\log_{2}\left(\frac{15}{2}\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
x=\frac{\log_{2}\left(15\right)-1}{\frac{5}{31}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{5}{31}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
