What is the result of dividing log(log x) by log x?

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

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