How many standard deviations is 16.50 from the mean?
You can't average means with standard deviations. What are you trying to do with the two sets of data?
The z-score of a value indicates how many standard deviations it is from the mean. If a value is 2.08 standard deviations greater than the mean, its z-score is simply 2.08. This means the value lies 2.08 standard deviations above the average of the dataset.
That depends on what the standard deviation is.
In a normal distribution, approximately 68% of scores fall within one standard deviation of the mean (between -1 and +1 standard deviations). About 95% of scores fall within two standard deviations (between -2 and +2 standard deviations). Therefore, the percentage of scores that falls specifically between the mean and -2 to 2 standard deviations is about 95% minus the 50% that is below the mean, resulting in approximately 45%.
Square the standard deviations, subtract/add them and calculate the square root of the subtraction/sum. StDV=sqrt (StDvA^2+StDvB^2)
How many standard deviations is 16.50 from the mean?
The sum of standard deviations from the mean is the error.
95% is within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
All minor deviations occurring with two standard deviations under the Gaussian curve are considered normal. Deviations occurring outside of two standard deviations are considered abnormal.
The mean for the WISC, like the WAIS, is 100. The deviations from 100, or standard deviations, are 15.
2 times the standard deviation!
You can't average means with standard deviations. What are you trying to do with the two sets of data?
16.5 is 1 standard deviation from the mean. If you add the mean of 14 to the 1 standard deviation of 2.5, the result is 16.5.
That depends on what the standard deviation is.

Z-Score tells how many standard deviations a measurement is away from the mean.
