Commodity p0 q0 p1 q1 q0q1 `sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` p0`sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` p1`sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)`
I 20 9 30 4 36 `square` `square` 180

Total     390 `square`

Walsh’s price Index Number is

P01(W) = `square/(sum"p"_0sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)) xx 100`

= `510/square xx 100`

= `square`


`sqrt((sump_1q_0)/(sump_0q_0)) xx sqrt((sump_1q_1)/(sump_0q_1)) xx 100`


Laspeyre’s Price Index Number uses current year’s quantities as weights.
