In what follows, HM(a,b)HM(a,b), AM(a,b)AM(a,b) and GM(a,b)GM(a,b) represent the Harmonic,
Arithmetic and Geometric means of aa and bb.
Select one or more:
a. HM(a,b) AM(a,b)=D1HM(a,b) AM(a,b)=1
b. HM(a,b)=AM(a,b)HM(a,b)=DAM(a,b)
c. GM(a,b)>1GM(a,b)>1
d. None
e. HM(a,b)-AM(a,b)>1HM(a,b)-AM(a,b)>1
f. GM(a,b)<1GM(a,b)<1
g. HM(a,b)<GM(a,b)<AM(a,b)HM(a,b)<GM(a,b)<AM(a,b)
h. AM(a,b)<1AM(a,b)<1
i. HM(a,b) AM(a,b)<1
