300000\times 1.004^{x}=630000
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
1.004^{x}=\frac{21}{10}
Divide both sides by 300000.
\log(1.004^{x})=\log(\frac{21}{10})
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
x\log(1.004)=\log(\frac{21}{10})
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
x=\frac{\log(\frac{21}{10})}{\log(1.004)}
Divide both sides by \log(1.004).
x=\log_{1.004}\left(\frac{21}{10}\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
