Problem

If one uses only the tabular information $10^3=1000$, $10^4=10,000$, $2^{10}=1024$, $2^{11}=2048$, $2^{12}=4096$, $2^{13}=8192$, then the strongest statement one can make for $\log_{10}{2}$ is that it lies between:

$\textbf{(A)}\ \frac{3}{10} \; \text{and} \; \frac{4}{11}\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ \frac{3}{10} \; \text{and} \; \frac{4}{12}\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ \frac{3}{10} \; \text{and} \; \frac{4}{13}\qquad \textbf{(D)}\ \frac{3}{10} \; \text{and} \; \frac{40}{132}\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ \frac{3}{11} \; \text{and} \; \frac{40}{132}$

Solution
