Question

Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion μμ. Find the margin of error M.E. that corresponds to a sample of size 336 with a mean of 78.3 and a standard deviation of 19.4 at a confidence level of 98%.

Report ME accurate to one decimal place because the sample statistics are presented with this accuracy.
M.E. = 

Answer should be obtained without any preliminary rounding. However, the critical value may be rounded to 3 decimal places.
