Benford's law states that the probability that a number in a set has a given leading digit, d, isP(d) = log(d + 1) - log(d).State which property you would use to rewrite the expression as a single logarithm, and rewrite the logarithm. What is the probability that the number 1 is the leading digit? Explain.
Use the quotient property to rewrite the expression. Write the difference of logs as the quotient log((d+1)/d). Substitute 1 for d to get log(2). Since log(2) = 0.30, the probability that the number 1 is the leading digit is about 30%.
