How do I find the mantissa of 0.6075? Any help would be appreciated! I have a table to find the antilogarithm, but I don\'t know how to find the mantissa in order to use the table! Thanks!

Solution

For a real number x, the mantissa is defined as the positive fractional part x – [ x]= frac(x), where [x] denotes the floor function. Also mantissa is the part of a common logarithm after the decimal point, the fractional part of a logarithm. Thus, the mantissa of the number 0.6075 is 0.6075.
