Question

Find the geometric mean of 5 and 320.

Answer 1

a=5
b=320
G.M=(ab)1/2=(5×320)^1/2=(1600)^1/2=40

Answer 2

Answer:

The geometric mean of 5 and 320 is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the numbers 5 and 320 and we have to find the geometric mean of these two numbers.

We know the formula for the geometric mean of two numbers x and y is given by

$GM=\sqrt{xy}$

x = 5, y = 320

Hence, we have

$GM=\sqrt{5\times 320}$

$GM=\sqrt{1600}\\GM=40$

Therefore, the geometric mean of 5 and 320 is 40.
