Use the rule to change the base

[tex]\log_a(b) = \dfrac{\log_c(b)}{\log_c(a)}[/tex]

To express both logarithms in terms of the natural logarithm (for example, any common base would be fine:

[tex]\log_c(x) = \dfrac{\ln(x)}{\ln(c)},\quad \log_d(x) = \dfrac{\ln(x)}{\ln(d)}[/tex]

Since the natural logarithm is an increasing function, we have

[tex]c<d\implies \ln(c)>\ln(d)[/tex]

which implies

[tex]\dfrac{\ln(x)}{\ln(c)}=\log_c(x)<\log_d(x)=\dfrac{\ln(x)}{\ln(d)}[/tex]
