3^{n}=28561
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
\log(3^{n})=\log(28561)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
n\log(3)=\log(28561)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
n=\frac{\log(28561)}{\log(3)}
Divide both sides by \log(3).
n=\log_{3}\left(28561\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
