how did log(2)/log(e) become 2/e?

#

what did you type in for the calculator input?

#

yeah i think your confusion is just based on a conflict of definition about what "log" means

#

log in (academic) mathematics and ln are the same thing

#

but in some high school or elementary school books/schools, log means logarithm in base 10

#

so wolfram alpha follows the academic definition
