{{InteractiveExample("JavaScript Demo: Math.log10()")}}

```js interactive-example
console.log(Math.log10(100000));
// Expected output: 5

console.log(Math.log10(2));
// Expected output: 0.3010299956639812

console.log(Math.log10(1));
// Expected output: 0

console.log(Math.log10(0));
// Expected output: -Infinity
```

## Syntax

```js-nolint
Math.log10(x)
```

### Parameters

- `x`
  - : A number greater than or equal to 0.

### Return value

The base 10 logarithm of `x`. If `x < 0`, returns {{jsxref("NaN")}}.

## Description

Because `log10()` is a static method of `Math`, you always use it as `Math.log10()`, rather than as a method of a `Math` object you created (`Math` is not a constructor).

This function is the equivalent of `Math.log(x) / Math.log(10)`. For `log10(e)`, use the constant {{jsxref("Math.LOG10E")}}, which is 1 / {{jsxref("Math.LN10")}}.

## Examples

### Using Math.log10()

```js
Math.log10(-2); // NaN
Math.log10(-0); // -Infinity
Math.log10(0); // -Infinity
Math.log10(1); // 0
Math.log10(2); // 0.3010299956639812
Math.log10(100000); // 5
Math.log10(Infinity); // Infinity
```
