Answer:

a. 70% ± 5.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion is:

p = 210 / 300 = 0.7

The margin of error is:

ME = z √(p (1 − p) / n)

where z is the critical value, p is the proportion, and n is the sample size.

For a 95% confidence interval, z ≈ 2.

ME = 2 √(0.7 (1 − 0.7) / 300)

ME = 0.053

So the proportion is 70% ± 5.3%.
