No, it's [log(log x)] / [log x]. :tongue:
\frac{\log\log x}{\log x} doesn't simplify.

\frac{log(log(x))}{log(x)} would equal log(x) if log(log(x))=(log(x))^2=log(x)log(x), but it doesn't :tongue:
It's the same deal as trying to simplify say, \frac{sin(sinx)}{sinx} this doesn't equal sin(x) because the numerator is not sin2(x)
