#e^3.68~~40#

Explanation:

#ln40 = 3.68#

#e^(ln40) = e^3.68#

#40 = e^3.68#

But theses are both false, both solutions are irrational:

#ln40 ~~ 3.68#

and

#e^3.68~~39.64#

#e^(3.68)#

Explanation:

#"using the "color(blue)"law of logarithms"#

#•color(white)(x)log_b x=nhArrx=b^n#

#["note that "ln-=log_e]#

#40-=e^3.68#
