A single A.M between a and b is:

Question: A single A.M between a and b is:
  • A. A. (a+b)/2
  • B. B. =_/ab
  • C. C. 2ab/(a+b)
  • D. D. None of these
Correct Answer: A. A. (a+b)/2
Explanation: <!-- /wp:more -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The arithmetic mean (A.M) between any two numbers a and b is (a+b)/2.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If we want to find a single arithmetic mean between a and b, we can set up an equation such that:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A.M = (a+b)/2</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>But since we are looking for a single A.M between a and b, we don’t know the exact value of the A.M. Therefore, we cannot solve for it using this equation.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>However, we can make an observation that any value between a and b will be an arithmetic mean between a and b. Therefore, we can say that there are infinitely many single arithmetic means between any two numbers a and b</p>
