Answer

$$2\ln 2$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \int_2^4 {\int_2^4 {\frac{1}{y}dx} dy} \cr & \int_2^4 {\left[ {\int_2^4 {\frac{1}{y}dx} } \right]} dy \cr & {\text{solve the inner integral}} \cr & \int_2^4 {\frac{1}{y}dx} = \frac{1}{y}\int_2^4 {dx} \cr & = \frac{1}{y}\left[ x \right]_2^4 \cr & {\text{evaluate limits}} \cr & = \frac{1}{y}\left( {4 - 2} \right) \cr & = \frac{2}{y} \cr & {\text{then}} \cr & \int_2^4 {\int_2^4 {\frac{1}{y}dx} dy} = \int_2^4 {\frac{2}{y}} dy \cr & {\text{integrating}} \cr & = 2\left[ {\ln \left| y \right|} \right]_2^4 \cr & evaluating \cr & = 2\left( {\ln 4 - \ln 2} \right) \cr & = 2\left( {\ln 4 - \ln 2} \right) \cr & = 2\ln 2 \cr} $$
