The confidence interval is
0.59\pm0.081

We first find p, our sample proportion.  118/200 = 0.59.

Next we find the z-score associated with this level of confidence:
Convert 98% to a decimal: 98% = 98/100 = 0.98
Subtract from 1:  1-0.98 = 0.02
Divide by 2:  0.02/2 = 0.01
Subtract from 1:  1-0.01 = 0.99

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value is associated with a z-score of 2.33.

The margin of error (ME) is given by
ME=z\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}
\\
\\=2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.59(1-0.59)}{200}}=2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.2419}{200}}\approx0.081

This gives us the confidence interval 
0.59\pm0.081
