Question

Compute Geometric mean for the numbers 6,8,12,36

Answer 1

Answer:

The Geometric Mean is a special type of average where we multiply the numbers together and then take a square root (for two numbers), cube root (for three numbers) etc

Answer 2

Answer:

The Geometrical mean is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometrical mean is the $n^{th}$ root of the product of n numbers,

that is , for a set of numbers $x_{1} ,x_{2},x_{3}...,x_{n}$ geometric mean is given by

$GM= \sqrt[n]{x_{1} ,x_{2},x_{3}...,x_{n}}$

Therefore geometrical mean of 6,8,12,36 is given by

6 × 8 × 12 × 36 = 20736

$GM= \sqrt[4]{20736}$$=\sqrt[2]{144} =12$

GM = 12

Therefore Geometrical mean is 12
