Answer

$6$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of logarithms, the given equation, $ \log_3 3^6 $, is equivalent to \begin{align*}\require{cancel} & 6(\log_3 3) &(\text{use }\log_b x^y=y\log_b x) \\&= 6(1) &(\text{use }\log_b b=1) \\&= 6 .\end{align*} Hence, the expression $ \log_3 3^6 $ evalautes to $ 6 $.
