By using Log function

Explanation:

#7 * 3^t = 5 * 2 ^ t#
#log ( 7 * 3^t ) = log ( 5 * 2^t )#
#log(7)+log(3^t) = log(5)+log(2^t)#
#log(7)+tlog(3) = log(5)+tlog(2)#
#log(7)-log(5) = tlog(2)-tlog(3)#
#log(7/5)=t(log(2)-log(3))#
#log(7/5)=t(log(2/3))#
#log(7/5)/(log(2/3))=t#
then make good use of your cal.
