Did we solve your problem today?

The geometric mean is ideal for averaging rates, ratios and growth factors.

The math behind it

Multiply all the values, then take the nth root (n = how many values). Only works for positive numbers.

2, 8 → √16 = 4.

When to prefer it?

For percentage growth or multiplicative data, where the arithmetic mean overstates the average.
