In the case of LOG(), the base is 10. So 10^LOG(x) = x.


depends upton
log(10,10) is 1
reverse is power functin 10 to the power 1(a0^1) is10

simialrly log(10,2) is 3.321928
so 2^3.321928 is 10
[....]
see excel help for these functions


Yes, __do__ read the Help text. I wrote "LOG(x)" with no
"base" parameter. The default base is 10. So while it is
true that you may specify other bases, what I wrote was
not incorrect for base 10.

I interpreted the OP's question to be about log to base 10. I
mentioned LN() only to explain why the OP might have found
EXP(), which I thought might have set his expectation for
something comparable for LOG().
