XAT 2021 · QADI · Medium · Algebra

If log4m+log4n=log2(m+n)\log_4 m + \log_4 n = \log_2(m + n) where mm and nn are positive real numbers, then which of the following must be true?

  1. A.

    1m+1n=1\frac{1}{m} + \frac{1}{n} = 1

  2. B.

    m=nm = n

  3. C.

    m2+n2=1m^2 + n^2 = 1

  4. D.

    1m+1n=2\frac{1}{m} + \frac{1}{n} = 2

  5. E.

    No values of mm and nn can satisfy the given equation
