\(\frac{\log\sqrt{8}}{\log 4 - \log 2} = \frac{\log 8\frac{1}{2}}{\log (\frac{4}{2})}\)
= \(\frac{8 \frac{1}{2}}{\log (\frac{4}{2})}\)
= \(\frac{\frac{1}{2} \log 2^3}{\log 2}\)
= \(\frac{3}{2} \frac{\log 2}{\log 2}\)
= \(\frac{3}{2}\)
= \(\frac{8 \frac{1}{2}}{\log (\frac{4}{2})}\)
= \(\frac{\frac{1}{2} \log 2^3}{\log 2}\)
= \(\frac{3}{2} \frac{\log 2}{\log 2}\)
= \(\frac{3}{2}\)
