How do I find the derivative of lnx/x^2? Calculus Differentiating Logarithmic Functions Differentiating Logarithmic Functions with Base e 1 Answer mason m Dec 21, 2015 (1-2lnx)/x^3 Explanation: Know the identity: d/dx[lnx]=1/x Use the quotient rule: d/dx[lnx/x^2]=(x^2d/dx[lnx]-lnxd/dx[x^2])/x^4 =(x^2(1/x)-lnx(2x))/x^4 =(x-2xlnx)/x^4 =(1-2lnx)/x^3 Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of f(x)=ln(g(x)) ?
