Answer
$4$
Work Step by Step
Recall
(1) $\log_a{b}=y \longleftrightarrow a^y=b$
(2) The value of the function $f(x)=\log_a{x}$ increases as $x$ increases.
Let $y=\log_3{38}$
Use the definition in (1) above to obtain:
$3^y=38$
Note that
$3^3=27$ while $3^4=81$
Since $27\lt 38 \lt 81$, then $y$ must be between $3$ and $4$.
Thus, the least integer that is greater than $\log_3{38}$ is $4$.
