Identify the given logarithm: \( \log_2 3789 \). This is a logarithm with base 2.
Recall the change of base formula: \( \log_b a = \frac{\log_c a}{\log_c b} \), where \( c \) is a new base, typically \( e \) for natural logarithms.
Apply the change of base formula using natural logarithms: \( \log_2 3789 = \frac{\ln 3789}{\ln 2} \).
Use a calculator to find \( \ln 3789 \) and \( \ln 2 \). Ensure your calculator is set to compute natural logarithms.
Divide the result of \( \ln 3789 \) by \( \ln 2 \) to find the value of \( \log_2 3789 \).
