Recap
Geometric Mean is “ the Nth root of the product
of N items or values”
G.M.-Individual series = Antilog ∑log X
n
CCP303.27 3
Calculation of Geometric Mean
Discrete Series
Steps:
Find the logarithm of each item i.e., (log X)
Multiply these logarithms with respective
frequencies i.e. f log X
Obtain total ∑ f Log X
Divide ∑ f Log X by total frequency
Find anti-logarithm of quotient obtained
∴G.M. = Antilog (∑f log x)

Example 1:
CCP303.27 5
Solution to Ex.1
Calculation of Geometric Mean
x f Log x F log x
10 12 1.0000 12.0000
20 15 1.3010 19.5150
30 25 1.4771 36.9275
40 20 1.6021 32.0420
50 6 1.6990 10.1940
60 2 1.7782 3.5564
N=80 ∑ f log X = 114.2349
CCP303.27 6
Solution contd
Geometric Mean = Antilog ∑ f log x
N
= Antilog 114.2349/80
= Antilog 1.4279
= 26.79
∴Geometric Mean = 26.79
CCP303.27 7
Example 2:
CCP303.27 8
Solution
CCP303.27 9
Solution contd
Now substitute
Geometric Mean = Antilog ∑f log X the values in
the formula
N
= Antilog 75.9196/60
= Antilog 1.2653
= 18.42
Geometric Mean = 18.42
CCP303.27 10
Calculation of Geometric Mean
Continuous Series
Steps:
Find the mid-points of classes and take their
logarithms
Multiply these logarithms with respective
frequencies of each class and obtain total i.e.,
∑ f log m
Divide total ∑ f log m by the total frequency and
take antilog of the value so obtained
∴G.M. = Antilog (∑ f log m)

Solution to Ex.3
Calculation of Geometric Mean
CCP303.27 13
Solution contd
Geometric Mean = Antilog ∑f log m

= Antilog 63.5406/50
= Antilog 1.2708
= 18.65
Geometric Mean = 18.65

Calculation of Geometric Mean
CCP303.27 16
Solution contd
Geometric Mean = Antilog ∑f log m
N
= Antilog 137.1936/109
= Antilog 1.2587
= 18.14
Geometric Mean = 18.14
