Geometric Mean. 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. First we multiply them: 2 Ã 18 = 36. Then (as there are two numbers) take the square root: â36 = 6.
Geometric Mean Calculator Home Â» Math Â» Average Calculators Â» Geometric Mean Calculator Geometric mean, one of the three Pythagorean means, is another type of average used to help characterize the central tendency of a set of numbers in math, science, and finance. While lesser known than the arithmetic mean, the geometric mean is an important calculation often used by scientists, biologists, and in financial reporting. The geometric mean is calculated by multiplying a set of numbers and taking the nth root, where n represents the total number of values in the sample. If that sounds like a mouthful, it can be simplified by thinking of it as the average of the logarithmic values converted into a base 10 number.
