So I have this raw data for a case study: enter image description here

Note: 1 stands for average weight and 2 for overweight.

I need to calculate the following:

  1. What is the mean expected time spent for the average-weight patients? What is the mean expected time spent for the overweight patients?
  2. What is the difference in means between the groups? By approximately how many standard deviations do the means differ?

I have already solved the first one and the first part of the 2nd question. However how do I answer the 2nd part of the 2nd question?(the standard deviations part)

Answers:

1) Average weight mean = 31.36; overweight mean = 24.74

2) Difference = 6.62; they differ by 0.68 standard deviations
