Question

what is the equation to find geometric mean

Answer 1

Suppose you have two no.s x and y
The geometric mean GM is given by
\[GM=\sqrt{x\times y}\]

Answer 2

ok so how would i solve that?

Answer 3

Suppose I have two no.s 2 and 8. I want to find the GM
Using the formula
\[\sqrt{2 \times 8}=\sqrt{16}=??\]
can you find the square root?

Answer 4

4

Answer 5

Right :)
So 4 is the geometric mean of 2 and 8

Answer 6

Do you understand this?

Answer 7

ohh i think i understand it :)

Answer 8

Cool !

Answer 9

can we do another just to make sure i understand

Answer 10

Yeah sure. This time you try, find the geometric mean of 3 and 27

Answer 11

\[GM=\sqrt{3*27}\]

Answer 12

Good, solve it further

Answer 13

\[\sqrt{81}=9\]

Answer 14

GM=9

Answer 15

Good work indeed :)
