Question
**Transcription for Educational Website**

**Scenario Description:**

Suppose a randomly selected sample of \( n = 50 \) men has a mean foot length of \( \bar{x} = 28.1 \) cm, and the standard deviation of the sample is 4 cm. Calculate an approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean foot length of men. (Round the answers to one decimal place.)

**Answer Input:**

- Lower limit of confidence interval: \(0.1\) cm (incorrect indication provided by a red cross)
- Upper limit of confidence interval: \(2.0\) cm (incorrect indication provided by a red cross)

**Explanation:**

The task involves finding a 95% confidence interval for the mean foot length based on the provided sample data. The existing answers (0.1 cm to 2.0 cm) were marked incorrect, indicating the calculation needs reconsideration using the provided mean, standard deviation, and sample size.
