\frac{1}{256}\times 4^{2x-3}=64
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
4^{2x-3}=16384
Multiply both sides by 256.
\log(4^{2x-3})=\log(16384)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
\left(2x-3\right)\log(4)=\log(16384)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
2x-3=\frac{\log(16384)}{\log(4)}
Divide both sides by \log(4).
2x-3=\log_{4}\left(16384\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
2x=7-\left(-3\right)
Add 3 to both sides of the equation.
x=\frac{10}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
