1.
Which of the following statements is not correct?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
(a) Since loga a = 1, so log10 10 = 1.
(b) log (2 + 3) = log 5 and log (2 x 3) = log 6 = log 2 + log 3
log (2 + 3) 
log (2 x 3)
(c) Since loga 1 = 0, so log10 1 = 0.
(d) log (1 + 2 + 3) = log 6 = log (1 x 2 x 3) = log 1 + log 2 + log 3.
So, (b) is incorrect.

D is also incorrect.
log(1+2+3) = log 1* log 2 * log 3.
log(1+2+3) = log 1* log 2 * log 3.
