The harmonic mean is one of several kinds of average. The harmonic mean can be expressed as the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean and is used around the mean to calculate ratios (quotient of two quantities).
Formulas for the harmonic mean
\(\displaystyle H=\frac{n}{\frac{1}{x_1}+\frac{1}{x_2}+ ... +\frac{1}{x_n}} = \frac{n}{\sum^n_{i=1}\frac{1}{x_i}} \)
Example
In the following example we calculate the mean of the 5 numbers
\(\displaystyle 5,3,4,2,6 \)
\(\displaystyle H=\frac{n}{\frac{1}{x_1}+\frac{1}{x_2}+\frac{1}{x_3}+\frac{1}{x_4} +\frac{1}{x_5}} \)
\(\displaystyle H=\frac{5}{\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{6}}≈ 3.45\)
