\left(1+\frac{0.03}{365}\right)^{x}=\frac{1000000}{25000}
Divide both sides by 25000.
\left(1+\frac{0.03}{365}\right)^{x}=40
Divide 1000000 by 25000 to get 40.
\left(1+\frac{3}{36500}\right)^{x}=40
Expand \frac{0.03}{365} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
\left(\frac{36503}{36500}\right)^{x}=40
Add 1 and \frac{3}{36500} to get \frac{36503}{36500}.
\log(\left(\frac{36503}{36500}\right)^{x})=\log(40)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
x\log(\frac{36503}{36500})=\log(40)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
x=\frac{\log(40)}{\log(\frac{36503}{36500})}
Divide both sides by \log(\frac{36503}{36500}).
x=\log_{\frac{36503}{36500}}\left(40\right)
