ur=logr  ∴Σ_(r=1) ^(10) ur=Σ_(r=1) ^(10) logr=S  For x,y>0 we have that logx+logy=logxy.    PROOF:   Let u=a^(log_a m)  where m>0 & a>0.⇒u>0  Also let n=log_a r^k   (a>0,r>0,k≠0)⇒r^k =a^n ⇒r=a^(n/k) ⇒log_a r=n/k⇒n=klog_a r  (Power rule)  ⇒log_a u=log_a (a^(log_a m) )=(log_a m)(log_a a)  Since a=a^1 ⇒log_a a=1.  log_a u=log_a m⇒u=m ∴ m=a^(log_a m) .  So, if x,y>0⇒ a^(log_a x) ×a^(log_a y) =xy or a^(log_a x+log_a y) =xy  ⇒log_a xy=log_a a^(log_a x+log_a y) =(log_a x+log_a y)(log_a a)       ⇒log_a xy=log_a x+log_a y                               □    Thus, S=logΠ_(r=1) ^(10) r=log(10!)=log3628800
