The problem asks to express $log(8) + log(10) - log(2)$ as the logarithm of a product or quotient.

1. Problem Description

The problem asks to express $log(8) + log(10) - log(2)$ as the logarithm of a product or quotient.

2. Solution Steps

We can use the logarithm properties to simplify the expression.

$log(a) + log(b) = log(a * b)$

$log(a) - log(b) = log(a / b)$

Using these properties, we can rewrite the expression as:

$log(8) + log(10) - log(2) = log(8 * 10) - log(2)$

$log(8 * 10) - log(2) = log(80) - log(2)$

$log(80) - log(2) = log(80 / 2)$

$log(80 / 2) = log(40)$

3. Final Answer

log 40
