If any value in the data is zero, then which of the following average vanishes ______________?
Correct answer: B. G.M.
- A. A.M.
- B. G.M.
- C. Mode
- D. None of these
Explanation
The geometric mean is the nth root of the product of all observations, so any zero makes that product zero and the geometric mean zero. The arithmetic mean and mode do not necessarily vanish when one observation is zero.
