Answer

$(\ln 2)^2$

Work Step by Step

Re-arrange the given integral as follows: $\int_{1}^{2} \int_{1}^{2}\dfrac{1}{xy} dy dx=(\dfrac{1}{2}) \ln (x)|_{1}^{2} (\dfrac{1}{y}) dy$ This implies that $(\dfrac{1}{2}) \ln (x)|_{1}^{2} (\dfrac{1}{y}) dy=\ln (2)\int_{1}^{2} (\dfrac{dy}{y})$ Hence, $(\ln 2) [(\ln y)]_1^2=(\ln 2)^2$
