Find the harmonic mean of $$$9$$$, $$$26$$$.
Solution
The harmonic mean of data is given by the formula $$$H = \frac{n}{\sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{1}{x_{i}}}$$$, where $$$n$$$ is the number of values and $$$x_i, i=\overline{1..n}$$$ are the values themselves.
Since we have $$$2$$$ points, $$$n = 2$$$.
The sum of the reciprocals of the values is $$$\frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{26} = \frac{35}{234}$$$.
Therefore, the harmonic mean is $$$H = \frac{2}{\frac{35}{234}} = \frac{468}{35}$$$.
Answer
The harmonic mean is $$$\frac{468}{35}\approx 13.371428571428571$$$A.
