To solve the equation \( e^{3t} = 1800 \) for \( t \):

1. Take the natural logarithm (ln) on both sides of the equation:
   \[
   \ln(e^{3t}) = \ln(1800)
   \]

2. Simplify the left side using the property \(\ln(e^x) = x\):
   \[
   3t = \ln(1800)
   \]

3. Solve for \( t \):
   \[
   t = \frac{\ln(1800)}{3}
   \]

4. Calculate the value and round to three decimal places as needed.

Final answer: 
\[ t \approx \boxed{} \] (Fill in the blank with the calculated value).
