How do you find the derivative of ln(x^3)? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Gió Aug 22, 2016 I found 3/x using the Chain Rule. Explanation: I would use the Chain Rule, deriving theln first (blue) and then multiplying by the derivative of the argument (red) to get: y'=color(blue)(1/x^3)*color(red)(3x^2)=3/x Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
