Answer: 32

Explanation:

In mathematics, we get the geometric mean of a group of n numbers by taking the nth root of the product of the numbers.

Since 256 = 16^2 and 4 =2^2 are perfect squares, the easiest method is to multiply their square roots:

Geometric mean of 256 and 4:

= 16^2 × 2^2

= 16 × 2

= 32
