Geometric mean calculator
Average positive multiplicative values using logarithms.
A clear answer. Here’s how.
Geometric mean = exp(mean(log(x))). Requires strictly positive values. Useful for compatible multiplicative quantities; growth percentages must first be represented as positive factors (for example, 5% becomes 1.05). Uses logarithms to avoid multiplying all values directly.
