Problem

If $\log_{k}{x}\cdot \log_{5}{k} = 3$, then $x$ equals:

$\textbf{(A)}\ k^6\qquad  \textbf{(B)}\ 5k^3\qquad  \textbf{(C)}\ k^3\qquad  \textbf{(D)}\ 243\qquad  \textbf{(E)}\ 125$

Solution

125. Rearrange the equation into \[\log_{5}{k}\cdot\log_{k}{x} = 3\] which is just \[\log_{5}{x} = 3\] and x is 125.
