Question

Find the geometric mean of the numbers. If necessary, give the answer in simplest radical form.

8 and 32

Answer 1

the geometric mean of 8 and 32 is 16.

Explanation:

The numbers given are 8 and 32.

To find the geometric mean, we calculate the square root of their product:

√(8 * 32)

Simplifying the product inside the square root:

√(256)

Taking the square root:

√(256) = 16.
