Nice solution but in second step, it should be a plus sign instead of minus sign. Please make the correction.

Thank you for the edit!! Was half-asleep (hence a little half-witted) when I wrote that.

No problem these things happen to everybody.
f ( X ) = L n 1 0 2 L n X − L n X L n 0 . 0 1 f ′ ( X ) = X ∗ L n 1 0 2 + X ∗ ( L n X ) 2 L n 0 . 0 1 = 0 . ⟹ X = 1 0 ∴ f ( X ) = L n 1 0 2 L n 1 0 − L n 1 0 L n 0 . 0 1 = 4

We have,
2 lo g 1 0 x − lo g x 0 . 0 1
Which is equivalent to:
⇒ 2 lo g 1 0 x + 2 lo g x 1 0
⇒ 2 ( lo g 1 0 x + lo g x 1 0 )
⇒ 2 ( lo g 1 0 x + lo g 1 0 x 1 )
Set lo g 1 0 x as t. Then:
2 ( t + t 1 )
Appyling AM-GM Inequality to it, we get:
2 ( t + t 1 ) ≥ t / t
( t + t 1 ) ≥ 2
Hence the minimum value of the given expression is 2 ∗ 2 = 4
