Calculate different types of mean values instantly. Our comprehensive mean calculator supports arithmetic mean (average), geometric mean (for growth rates), harmonic mean (for rates), and weighted mean (when values have different importance). Get detailed step-by-step solutions with formulas.
The mean is a measure of central tendency that represents the average value of a dataset. There are several types of means: arithmetic mean (sum divided by count), geometric mean (nth root of the product), harmonic mean (reciprocal of arithmetic mean of reciprocals), and weighted mean (accounts for different importance of values).
Arithmetic Mean Formula
x̄ = Σx / nCalculate various means for statistical analysis and data interpretation.
Use geometric mean for average returns over multiple periods.
Apply harmonic mean for parallel resistance and acoustic calculations.
Calculate weighted averages for courses with different credit values.
Use geometric mean when dealing with multiplicative relationships, such as growth rates, compound interest, or ratios. For example, if an investment grows 10% one year and 20% the next, geometric mean gives the true average growth rate, while arithmetic mean would overestimate it.
