As we learned 

 

Properties of Geometric Mean -

If G1 and G2 are the geometric means of two series of sizes n1 and n2 respectively then the geometric mean G of combined series is given by 

\log G= \frac{n_{1}\log G_{1}+n_{2}\log G_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}

-

 

 \log G=\frac{3\log 2+3\log 4}{6}=\frac{\log 2+\log 4}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\log 8=\log 2\sqrt{2}

 Thus\; G= 2\sqrt{2}
