Answer #1

Solution:

We know that the sampling distribution of the sample proportions follow approximately normal distribution.

Here, we have to find P(-2.1<Z<2.1)

P(-2.1<Z<2.1) = P(Z<2.1) - P(Z<-2.1)

P(-2.1<Z<2.1) = 0.982136 - 0.017864

(by using z-table)

P(-2.1<Z<2.1) = 0.964272

Required percentage = 96.43%
