$$a=\frac{\ln 18}{\ln 12}=\frac{2\ln 3+\ln 2}{\ln 3+2\ln 2}=\frac{2p+q}{p+2q}$$$$b=\frac{\ln 54}{\ln 24}=\frac{3\ln 3+\ln 2}{\ln 3+3\ln 2}=\frac{3p+q}{p+3q}$$$$ab+5(a-b)=$$$$=\frac{6p^2+5pq+q^2}{(p+2q)(p+3q)}-\frac{5(p^2-q^2)}{(p+2q)(p+3q)}=$$$$=\frac{p^2+5pq+6q^2}{(p+2q)(p+3q)}=\frac{(p+2q)(p+3q)}{(p+2q)(p+3q)}=1$$
