Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:option C) 1.61Step-by-step explanation:The question is to evaluate the natural logarithm of 5. Natural logarithms are logarithms with base e. e is the irrational number equal to 2.71828182845904523536028747 ... (being irrational the decimals do not end and do not have a repetition period).Logarithms are evaluated using tables or scientific calculators.ln (5) = 1.6094379... it is also an irrational number, so it has infinite decimals with no repetition period.So, rounding to two decimal numbers, ln (5) = 1.61, which is the option C).
