Question
I need the number in the block.
The equation shown in the image is:

\[
\log_7 \left(\frac{1}{16}\right) = -4 \log_7 (\square)
\]

This equation involves logarithms with base 7. It equates the logarithm of one-sixteenth to the negative four times the logarithm of an unknown quantity, represented by a square. Solving this equation involves finding the value that makes both sides equal.

Below the equation, there is some contact information: CASEDirect 800.423.1411.
