well the best way to approach this is to ln both sides:
ln 104^t = ln 2
t ln 104 = ln 2
t = ln2/ln104
t = 0.1492

Let x=104 and t=2
so x raise power t or x^t = 104^2 or 104 * 104 = 10816
is the correct answer.

104^t = 2
Take log base 104 on both sides
t = log base 104 of 2
t is about 0.149244

taking logarithm on both sides,
log 104^t = log 2
t log 104 =log 2
t=log 2 / log 104
t=0.149

ln104^t = ln 2
t ln 104 = ln 2
t = ln2/ln104
t = 0.149244

log 2 (base104)=t
log 2/log 104=t
use your calculator.

In general, the solution for an equation like:
a^x=b
is:
x = ln(b)/ln(a)
given that b > 0.
For your case, the solution is:
t = .14924

log(104^t)=log2
t*log(104)=log2
t=log(2)/log(104)
t=0.149

t*log104=log 2
t=2.01703333/0.3010299
t=6.7
