What is the geometric mean of 24 and 36?

Answer 1

Since you have 2 numbers, n=2. The product of all the numbers you have is P=864=24*36. P^(1/n)=\sqrt(864), which is approximately 29.3939.

Symbolically, 24=12*2 and 36=12*3. So \sqrt(12*2*12*3)=12*\sqrt(6) which can be approximated by the above decimal.
