Question

Three randomly chosen California students were asked how many times they drove to Mexico last year. Their replies were 4, 5, 6. The geometric mean is:

Answer 1

4.93

Explanation:

Given 3 numbers a, b and c, the formula for calculating their geometric mean is expressed as:

GM = ∛a*b*c

Given the numbers 4, 5 and 6

geometric mean = ∛4 * 5 * 6

geometric mean = ∛20*6

geometric mean = ∛120

geometric mean = 4.93

Hence the geometric mean is 4.93
