I cannot read the equation. Is it $2^3*5^5(x)=frac{1}{3*5}text{log}_{(2*5)}(x)$?

@Rohan This is what MathJax looks like. If this is not what you wanted, you can change it yourself.

I cannot read the equation. Is it $2^3*5^5(x)=frac{1}{3*5}text{log}_{(2*5)}(x)$?

The answer is no.
Let $x=10$ and the $RHS$ will be $frac {1}{15}$
The $LHS$ then implies $$2^3 times 5^5 =10^{15}$$ which is not true.

By the change of base formula:
$$log_{color{red}{b}} (x) = frac{log_color{blue}{d} (x)}{log_color{blue}{d} (color{red}{b})}$$
$$log_{color{red}{2 cdot 5}} (x) = frac{log_color{blue}{2^3 cdot 5^5} (x)}{log_color{blue}{2^3 cdot 5^5} (color{red}{2 cdot 5})}$$
$$log_{2^3 cdot 5^5} (x) = frac{1}{log_{2^3 cdot 5^5} ({2 cdot 5})} cdot log_{2 cdot 5} (x)$$
but $log_{2^3 cdot 5^5} ({2 cdot 5}) ne 15$.
