1. The problem is to simplify the expression $$\frac{\log(3)}{\log_n(3)}$$ where $\log$ is the logarithm with an unspecified base (commonly base 10) and $\log_n$ is the logarithm with base $n$.
2. Recall the change of base formula for logarithms: $$\log_a(b) = \frac{\log_c(b)}{\log_c(a)}$$ for any positive base $c \neq 1$.
3. Using this formula, we can express $\log_n(3)$ in terms of $\log(3)$ and $\log(n)$ as:
$$\log_n(3) = \frac{\log(3)}{\log(n)}$$
4. Substitute this into the original expression:
$$\frac{\log(3)}{\log_n(3)} = \frac{\log(3)}{\frac{\log(3)}{\log(n)}}$$
5. Simplify the complex fraction by multiplying numerator and denominator:
$$= \log(3) \times \frac{\log(n)}{\log(3)}$$
6. Cancel $\log(3)$ in numerator and denominator:
$$= \cancel{\log(3)} \times \frac{\log(n)}{\cancel{\log(3)}} = \log(n)$$
7. Therefore, the simplified expression is:
$$\boxed{\log(n)}$$
