geo metric mean Q

[thunderanalyst]

Does any one remember this one in quant section. It gave 2 different ans, both in the given options, when you use 0.33 vs. 0.34 for calculating cube root.

I think it was in PM

I remember it, the one with the 0.3 and 0.7 weights? it gave like 5.4, 12 and -.7 annual returns, then do the geo and got the average.

 

[thunderanalyst]

yes exactly, I did tht with 0.33 got a close ans. Then just for heck of things, I used 0.34 and could find another option that exactly matched with my answer.
I don't understand why they have to test us like this way

just put it to the power of 1/3 instead of typing the decimal...its the most accurate way...or I guess you could type in 0.333333333 that would be close enough
