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.
In mathematics, the geometric mean is a type of mean or average, which indicates the central tendency or typical value of a set of numbers by using the product of their values (as opposed to the arithmetic mean which uses their sum).
