Geometric Mean (GM)
• The Geometric Mean is useful in finding the averages of increases in:– Percents– Ratios– Indexes– Growth Rates
• The Geometric Mean will always be less than or equal to (never more than) the arithmetic mean
• The GM gives a more conservative figure that is not drawn up by large values in the set
3333
Geometric Mean
• The GM of a set of n positive numbers is defined as the nth root of the product of n values. The formula is:
n nXXXXGM ))...()()((1% 321
1))...()()((% 321 n nXXXXGM
GM = Geometric MeanX 1 = A particular number (1 + %)X 2 = A particular number (1 + %)n = Number of postive numbers in set
