12 Weighted Mean

13 Geometric Mean The geometric mean indicates the central tendency or typical value of a set of numbers by using the product of their values (as opposed to the arithmetic mean which uses their sum). The geometric mean is defined as the nth root (where n is the count of numbers) of the product of the numbers.arithmetic meannth rootproduct For instance, the geometric mean of two numbers, say 2 and 8, is just the square root of their product; that is 2√2 × 8 = 4.square root

14 The geometric mean only applies to positive numbers in order to avoid taking the root of a negative product In statistical surveys when proportional differences are more important than the absolute differences, geometric mean referred instead of arithmetic mean. Geometric Mean

15 Harmonic Mean The harmonic mean H is defined to be the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of the reciprocals of :reciprocalarithmetic mean When prices are expressed in quantities (so many units per dollars) harmonic mean should be calculated.
