Simplify \(\frac{\log_{5} 8}{\log_{5} \sqrt{8}}\).

  • A -2
  • B \(\frac{-1}{2}\)
  • C \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  • D 2

The correct answer is D. 2

\(\frac{\log_{5} 8}{\log_{5} \sqrt{8}} = \frac{\log_{5} 8}{\log_{5} 8^{\frac{1}{2}}}\)

= \(\frac{\log_{5} 8}{\frac{1}{2}\log_{5} 8}\)

= \(\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}} \)

= 2
