The logarithm \displaystyle \text{lg }0.\text{1 } is defined as that number which should stand in the (??) grey box in order that the equality


\displaystyle 10^{??}=0.1


should hold. In this case, we see that


\displaystyle 10^{-1}=0.1


and therefore \displaystyle \text{lg }0.\text{1}=-\text{1}.
