value of (log b ) + (log c ) + (log a ) .
a b c
Solution: 3 . Let x = log b and y = log c ; then log a = − ( x + y ). Thus we want to a b c

compute the value of x + y − ( x + y ) = − 3 x y − 3 xy = − 3 xy ( x + y ). On the other hand,
− xy ( x + y ) = (log b )(log c )(log a ) = 1, so the answer is 3.
a b c
