  1. Identify Property: Identify the property used to expand log(ab)\log\left(\frac{a}{b}\right). Using the quotient property of logarithms, which states logb(PQ)=logbPlogbQ\log_b\left(\frac{P}{Q}\right) = \log_b P - \log_b Q.
  2. Apply Quotient Property: Apply the quotient property to log(ab)\log\left(\frac{a}{b}\right).\newlinelog(ab)=logalogb\log\left(\frac{a}{b}\right) = \log a - \log b.
  3. Compare with Options: Compare the expanded form with the given options.\newlineThe correct form logalogb\log a - \log b matches with one of the options.
