Understanding Geometric Mean
The geometric mean is a special type of average that is particularly useful when dealing with numbers that have different ranges or when calculating growth rates over time. It's calculated by multiplying all numbers together and then taking the nth root, where n is the count of numbers.
Formula
Geometric Mean = ⁿ√(x₁ × x₂ × ... × xₙ)
Common Applications
The geometric mean is particularly useful in:
- Finance: Calculating average investment returns
- Biology: Analyzing population growth
- Economics: Computing average rates of change
- Engineering: Determining average ratios
