$$lim_{xto 1^+}[ln(x^7 -1) - ln(x^5 -1)]$$
This is a question from L-Hospital rule question set. My approach was to apply log property in this question and solve it, but $ln(frac{0}{0})$ might not be right way to convert it into indeterminate form.

$$lim_{x to 1^+} [ln(x^7-1)- ln(x^5-1)]=ln left[lim_{xto 1^+} frac{x^7-1}{x^5-1} right]$$
Evaluate $lim_{xto 1^+} frac{x^7-1}{x^5-1} $ first and I think you can solve the problem.
I am getting the answer ln(7/5). Is it right?

Hint:
$$lim_{xto 1^+}left[ln(x^7 -1) - ln(x^5 -1)right]=lnleft(lim_{xto 1^+}dfrac{x^7-1}{x^5-1}right)$$
Now use $x^n-1=(x-1)(x^{n-1}+x^{n-2}+cdots+x+1)$
Alternatively, $dfrac{x^7-1}{x^5-1}=dfrac{dfrac{x^7-1}{x-1}}{dfrac{x^5-1}{x-1}}$
and $$lim_{xto 1}dfrac{x^n-1}{x-1}=dfrac{d(x^n)}{dx}_{text{( at }x=1)}$$

Hint:
$$lim_{xto 1^+}left[ln(x^7 -1) - ln(x^5 -1)right]=lnleft(lim_{xto 1^+}dfrac{x^7-1}{x^5-1}right)$$
Now use $x^n-1=(x-1)(x^{n-1}+x^{n-2}+cdots+x+1)$
Alternatively, $dfrac{x^7-1}{x^5-1}=dfrac{dfrac{x^7-1}{x-1}}{dfrac{x^5-1}{x-1}}$
and $$lim_{xto 1}dfrac{x^n-1}{x-1}=dfrac{d(x^n)}{dx}_{text{( at }x=1)}$$
