Answer

$$\frac{1}{2}{\left( {\ln 4} \right)^2}$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \int_1^4 {\frac{{\ln x}}{x}dx} \cr & {\text{Let }}u = \ln x,{\text{ }}du = \frac{1}{x}dx \cr & {\text{The new limits of integration are}} \cr & x = 4 \to u = \ln 4 \cr & x = 1 \to u = 0 \cr & {\text{Substituting}} \cr & \int_1^4 {\frac{{\ln x}}{x}dx} = \int_0^{\ln 4} {udu} \cr & {\text{Integrating}} \cr & = \frac{1}{2}\left[ {{u^2}} \right]_0^{\ln 4} \cr & = \frac{1}{2}{\left( {\ln 4} \right)^2} \cr} $$
